La Guillotière, Multicultural district in Lyon, France

Located on the eastern bank of the Rhône River, La Guillotière encompasses residential areas, commercial streets, and public squares throughout its boundaries.

Initially a separate commune in the Isère department until 1852, La Guillotière merged with Lyon, marking a significant expansion of the city eastward.

The neighborhood features international restaurants, specialty food stores, and street art murals representing the diverse communities from North Africa and Asia.

Multiple transport options connect La Guillotière to central Lyon, including metro line D, tramway lines, and several bus routes crossing the district.

The district contains two major cemeteries spanning 18 hectares, where notable figures such as the Lumière brothers, pioneers of cinema, are buried.
