It was in the 17th century that a Place de la Liberté was created on a strategic site between the Pentes de la Croix-Rousse and the Presqu'île. In the heart of Lyon and power, the Place des Terreaux houses two emblematic places - the town hall and a former convent converted into a fine arts museum - and an equally emblematic monument: the Bartholdi fountain named after its sculptor (the same as for the Statue of Liberty). The square, redesigned by Christian Drevet and Daniel Buren, has been entirely restored but retains a "mineral" appearance.

Superbe place lyonnaise avec l'hôtel de ville et le musée des beaux arts. La fontaine Bartholdi est splendide et donne du cachet à la place.

La fontaine Bartholdi doit être tres belle en temps normal. Malheureusement elle en travaux actuellement (mai 2016). La place n'en deumeure pas moins belle avec l'hotel de ville notamment
