Against a backdrop of ecological challenges and a new appetite for urban living, the Lyon History Museum (LHM) proposes an exploration of the Saône and Rhône, the two rivers that flow through Lyon and form an integral part of its history and identity. Ever since they settled on the banks of the Saône in ancient times, the people of Lyon have lived with the rivers that run through their city. And it's been something of a turbulent love story!
