Espace des Droits-de-l'Homme

The Espace des Droits-de-l'Homme is a public green space in Villeurbanne with walking paths, seating areas, and open zones nestled among residential buildings. The layout includes planted areas and trees that define different sections for visitors to move through.

The park came about through Villeurbanne's efforts to add more green spaces to the densely built urban area. This initiative was part of a wider strategy to improve living conditions for residents.

The space takes its name from human rights and reflects the city's commitment to social inclusion in the neighborhood. Residents use the grounds regularly for informal gatherings and outdoor meetings throughout the week.

The space is located on rue du 1er-Mars-1943 and is well served by public transportation connections. The grounds are flat and easy to walk through, with clear paths and multiple spots to sit.

The grounds include small planted areas that create habitats for local bird and insect species. These pockets of green demonstrate how urban spaces can support wildlife while remaining accessible to people.
