Origin and history

The house located at 20 rue Saint-Jean in Lyon is a monument listed in the inventory of Historical Monuments since 1937. This building, whose exact period of construction is not specified in the available sources, is located in Old Lyon, an emblematic district of the city. Its exact address is confirmed by the Merimée bases and GPS coordinates, although the accuracy of its location is considered poor (note 5/10).

The house is now owned by a private company, and its current use (visit, rental, guest rooms) is not mentioned in the sources. It is part of the Lyon architectural heritage, protected for its historical interest. The data available are mainly from the Monumentum database and the internal archives, without any further details on its history or past occupants.

The building illustrates the importance of preserving old houses in a constantly changing urban context, such as Lyon, a city marked by a rich historical and commercial past since the Middle Ages.
