Secret passages leading to courtyars

The tower rose is one of the most famous and lovely towers of Lyon. In the medieval quarter of old Lyon, these towers are secret passages that lead you through the courtyards of the buildings without being exposed. They were used to avoid the police, army, or simply to avoid having to go around the block. This traboule was constructed on warm pink stone, and has the distinction of being endowed with a tower.
