"Oldest staircase in Lyon. Not only is it a great photo opportunity but the story behind it is also fascinating.
Its most significant role was realized during World War II when local citizens used this alleyway to hide from German forces.
Today, the Cour des Voraces stands as a symbol of resistance. And it’s one of many reasons why France is worth visiting!
Address: There are three entrances, but to get to this stairwell you’ll need to go to 9 Place Colbert."

"Location: 14 Montée Saint-Sébastien
This traboule was prominently used during uprisings of silk workers in the 1800’s. The workers would hide in this area to avoid being caught while protesting the unfair working conditions and pay. The entrance I suggested here has a sign in the front that says the name of this traboule. "
