Quai Victor-Augagneur, Riverfront promenade in 3rd arrondissement of Lyon, France

Quai Victor-Augagneur is a two-level riverfront area between two bridges, with the lower level redesigned for foot traffic and cyclists. Restaurants and bars operate from historic barges along the water, offering dining with views across the Rhône River.

The quay was named in 1932 to honor a mayor who led the city in the early 1900s and later served in national government. The site has transformed from an industrial port into a modern place for leisure and recreation.

The quay is named after Jean-Victor Augagneur, mayor of Lyon from 1900 to 1905, deputy and minister, with the name assigned on 25 January 1932. At no. 3 stands the Grand temple de Lyon, a Protestant place of worship completed in 1884 by architect Gaspard André. At no. 23, the Café du Rhône is a café-restaurant listed as a monument historique.

The area is easy to walk and has wide paths that work for different visitors, from strollers to cyclists. Multiple access points and open spaces along the water make navigation straightforward.

The Café du Rhône at no. 23 is a listed historic monument, but the quay's most-used feature is its cycle path: the Voie Lyonnaise 1 along it is the busiest cycling section in France. The Grand temple de Lyon, a Protestant church completed in 1884 by architect Gaspard André, stands at no. 3.
