This small island carries a memorial monument for the first world war, floating on the calm lake in green it's almost too beautiful to show the horror of that period.

Open from 11am. I was here at 12. It was closed. I have not found any information why. EDIT: A few day later it was open at 3pm.

The island is the place where swans nest, so you have to be carfull where you step. The monument is nice.

Really nice, calm place. One of my favorite spot from the park 💕

Cool island in the middle of the Parc. A memorial to various wars fought in by France. Access is through a under water tunnel

A cathartic place. Shame many dog walkers let their dogs defecate everywhere and not bag it up and take it home.

Beautiful monument

Great experience

Near the end of my walk around the perimeter of the park I noticed the tunnel going to the island. You can still hear the trains but the voices of children, geese talking, and peddle boats drowns the rest of the city.

(Translated by Google) Meaningful place. On the other hand, a flagrant lack of maintenance of this place of memory saddens me to the point 😥. The memory of the Lyonnais who died during the wars does not attract subsidies from the town hall 😰. (Original) Endroit plein de sens. Par contre, un manque d'entretien flagrant de ce lieu de mémoire m'attriste au plus au point 😥. La mémoire des Lyonnais morts pendant les guerres n'attirent pas les subsides de la mairie 😰.

Magnifique lieu de mémoire et de souvenirs. Le monument est impressionnant et montre bien toute l'horreur qu'ont vécues les milliers de victimes lyonnaises de ce désastre humain.

(Translated by Google) The island of remembrance is a place of commemoration of the French fallen in the great wars and subsequent operations. Not very interesting honestly, even considering that the place doesn't look very well maintained. (Original) L’isola del ricordo è un luogo di commemorazione dei caduti francesi delle grandi guerre e delle operazioni successive. Non molto interessante onestamente, anche considerando che il luogo non sembra tenuto benissimo.

En théorie, c'est ouvert de 11h 🕚 à 17h 🕔... Mais en pratique, sur place à 14h 🕑, nous trouvons porte close 😪
