Palais de la mutualité, Public building in 3rd arrondissement, Lyon, France.
The Palais de la Mutualité stands near Place Antonin-Jutard and features a prominent bell tower along with large window openings decorated with sculptures representing mutual aid themes. Its facade displays the building's functional and symbolic importance through these artistic details.
Architect François Clermont designed this headquarters for mutual aid societies between 1910 and 1913. President Raymond Poincaré inaugurated the building in 1914 during an exhibition on social hygiene.
The building continues to function as a center for mutual aid organizations and hosts conferences, exhibitions, and public gatherings that serve the Lyon community.
The location is accessible via metro Line D at Guillotière-Gabriel Péri station for straightforward arrival. Tram and bus routes also serve the area, offering multiple options for getting there.
The main entrance displays the carved motto 'Tous pour un, un pour tous', which expresses the building's dedication to collective welfare and social support. This phrase, drawn from a famous novel, was chosen as a guiding principle for the labor movement of that era.
