Rue du Sergent Blandan

The Rue du Sergent Blandan (French pronunciation: [ʁy dy sɛʁʒɑ̃ blɑ̃dɑ̃] ⓘ) is one of the oldest streets of Lyon.

12 and 22 have respectively ancient inscriptions that say "en toy te fie" and "non domo dominus, sed domino domus", a quote from chapter 39 of Cicero's De officiis.

[1] The Confraternity of Penitents of the Holy Crucifix was installed in the street in 1633, and, during the Ancien Régime, was the owner of the chapel rebuilt in 1643[4] which was demolished during the Reign of Terror and replaced by a house that currently overlooks the montée de la Grande Côte.

On 8 February 2005, the city of Lyon installed a plaque as tribute to Jewish children of the school who were deported and killed during the Second World War.

[1] Among the famous inhabitants of the street, there are the painters Jacques Collet (1557) and Jean Montet (1785), and the designer Martin François (1887).

The plaque indicates that the street is the ancient route of the Rhone.
