Lyon, day by day

Three Lyon days through the old town’s streets and museums, Fourvière’s Roman and religious landmarks, then fine art and the Tête d’Or park. The hilltop sights share one day, leaving time for museums and relaxed park walks.

Put museum days on the right weekdays

  • Gadagne normally opens Wednesday to Sunday. It houses Lyon history and puppetry museums; choose a focus and check last admission rather than assuming two complete visits fit into one short stop.Source: Gadagne · checked Sep 2026

Collections and admission

  • The fine-arts museum normally closes Tuesdays and opens later on Fridays. Verify which galleries are accessible on your date before committing to the museum morning.Source: Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon · checked Sep 2026
