Place Jean-Macé, Lyon

The Place Jean-Macé is a plaza located in the 7th arrondissement of Lyon in France.

In 1892, the Avenue Maréchal de Saxe was extended towards the south (the current Avenue Jean Jaurès).

Built in the first part of the 19th century, the Fort du Colombier and the wall that connected the height of the Vitriolerie were destroyed in the 1890s.

[1] A new public square was then built on the vacant land.

The Place Jean-Macé is served by several lines of TCL urban transit network at the station Jean Macé: The Lyon-Jean Macé railway station opened in 2009 on the south side of the square and is served by TER Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes regional railway services.
