Lighting of the Passerelle de la Paix, Lyon

Lyon (France)Road & Mobility

Designed by Dietmar Feichtinger Architectes and Schlaich Bergermann Partner, the Passerelle de la Paix connects Caluire to the Cité Internationale with remarkable lightness.

With a span of 220 metres for the upper section (and 156 metres for the lower), this aerial structure appears to have gently settled onto the Rhône, in the words of Gérard Collomb, then Senator–Mayor of Lyon.

Visible both day and night, it forms an elegant, luminous northern gateway to the city.
