    Visite en juillet avec mon fils de 11 ans. Très agréable, différents espaces avec des cartes interactives, des films, de la lecture (beaucoup, mais nous venons nous cultiver), et évidemment, le cachot. Explications données en fonction du lieu du musée. Nous sommes restés plus de deux heures et c’était très bien. Cadre magnifique. Très bonne entrée sur l’histoire du christianisme. Très, très complet.

    I really liked this visit! First of all, the welcome was wonderful: very friendly, available, passionate person. The space is actually not huge like that of a museum but we discover interesting things about the history, particularly that of Lyon. But what struck me the most was obviously the history of Christianity in Lyon, especially its martyrs. Their testimony is well highlighted. I would not hesitate to recommend it to those around me!

    (Translated by Google) This cultural space allows an immersion in the history of the Church and in particular of the Martyrs of Lyon. The very detailed letter on what they experienced is well highlighted and very gripping. A place to discover! (Original) Cet espace culturel permet une immersion dans l'histoire de l'Eglise et en particulier des Martyrs de Lyon. La lettre très détaillée sur ce qu'ils ont vécu est bien mise en valeur et très prenante. Un lieu à découvrir !

    Extract from the guide: "The first mention of a Christian presence in LYON dates back to the end of the 2nd century" [...] "the Church of LYON thus appears to be the oldest known Christianity in GAUL. The history of this first community remains obscure over the next two centuries."

    Excellent welcome, welcoming, friendly staff available to inform the public about the place and the history of Christianity in Lyon. Main points of interest: the presumed dungeon of Saint Pothinus as well as the crypt and its frescoes. The Space is structured around the very broad outlines of the history of Christianity, particularly in Lyon. Please note that this is a cultural space and not a museum. Thus, there are very few works and above all installations with an educational aim (signs, videos, maps) intended for a family audience and more for Christian affinities. Duration of the visit: 1h30 for the most conscientious.

    (Translated by Google) We visited this museum on the occasion of the Festival of Lights. The free entrance to the party allowed us to discover this unsuspected place. The mosaic room is beautiful. The volunteers who greeted us were very friendly and willing to explain or answer our questions. (Original) Nous avons visité ce musée à l'occasion de la fête des lumières. L'entrée gratuite pour la fête nous a permis de découvrir ce lieu insoupçonné. La salle des mosaïques est magnifique. Les bénévoles qui nous ont accueillis ont été très sympathiques et prêts à expliquer ou répondre à nos questions.

    Aucun intérêt : le musée est dépourvu de toute pièce a exposer. Ce ne sont que des projections sur écrans et des panneaux imprimés. La salle phare de la visite n'a rien d'historique et n'est qu'une création relativement récente. Amis du prosélytisme vous allez adorer : l'objectivité et la neutralité historique est absente.

    Very beautiful museum which highlights the Christian origins of France through the events of 177 and the martyrdom of the first Christians! A must see

  • 3/5 Christian G. 1 year ago on Google
    Belle architecture mais nous n’avons pas été convaincu par ce musée. Accueil très très présent, on vous donne toutes les informations à l’entrée et on vous glisse le tarif de sept euros à la fin, L’énergie est tout de même à souligner…

  • 3/5 Nicole D. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Beautiful place of religious culture. Very dense. I did not see an invitation to prayer. And the Last Supper fresco is not highlighted, panels clutter the space (Original) Beau lieu de culture religieuse. Très dense. Je n'ai pas vu d' invitation à la prière. Et la fresque de la cène n'est pas mise en valeur, des panneaux y encombre l'espace

    (Translated by Google) Nice museum, especially in the crypt part. However, there are few translations available. (Original) Museo carino, soprattutto nella parte della cripta. Tuttavia poche sono le traduzioni presenti.

    Visite de Fourvière : visite thématique Que c est il passé à Lyon en 177. Très bon accueil. Espace culturel ludique. En petit groupe notre guide nous a parfaitement expliqué cette histoire de Lyon en déambulant autour de Fourvière. Passionnant par un passionné. Je recommande les visites et conférences de l ECCLY. PS : je ne comprends pas le "Véhicule Neuf" qui s’affiche à côté de mon nom ?

    A monument to the history of Lyon and its martyrs. A marvel to absolutely visit in Lyon. The signage to find the museum from the funicular is not optimal, however.

  • 5/5 Gabriel S. 6 years ago on Google

    (Translated by Google) Tremendous documentation and excellent presentation ..... provided you are alone in the museum. Indeed, the automation of electronic stories and illustrations is absolutely parasitic on a good visit. TOO PERFECTED to tell the story of the first century. Charming cloister surely very ecological (Original) Formmidable documentation et excellente présentation..... à condition d'eêtre seul dans le musée. En effet, l'automatisation des récits et illustrations électroniques est absolument parasitaire d'une bonne visite. TROP PERFECTIONNÉ pour raconer 'histoire du premier siècle. Charmant cloître surement très écologique

    (Translated by Google) I would categorize it as one of the most beautiful experiences I have ever experienced in my life!

Rare parce que l'écrin (le musée) est aussi beau que son joyau (l'exposition) et émouvant de sentir la proximité de personnes ayant façonné l'Histoire...
