7th arrondissement of Lyon, Municipal district in southeastern Lyon, France

The 7th arrondissement extends over 9.75 square kilometers from Cours Gambetta to Gerland, bordered by the Rhône River and the 3rd and 8th districts.

Created in 1912 from a section of the 3rd arrondissement, this area developed around the ancient Guillotière crossing point over the Rhône River.

The Centre d'Histoire de la Résistance et de la Déportation presents exhibits about Lyon during World War II through documents, photographs, and personal accounts.

The district contains multiple metro stations, tram lines, and the Lyon-Jean Macé railway station, connecting residents to regional and national transportation networks.

The Halle Tony Garnier, converted from a former cattle market building, functions as the largest concert venue in Lyon with a capacity of 17,000 people.
