Quai Fulchiron, Riverfront in 5th arrondissement, Lyon, France

Quai Fulchiron stretches along the right bank of the Saône River between Pont Bonaparte and Pont Kitchener-Marchand, featuring stone walls and three lower ports.

The port area served as a significant maritime center during Roman times, with archaeological excavations revealing sixteen shipwrecks dating from the 3rd to 5th centuries.

Writer Gabriel Chevallier, author of the novel Clochemerle, was born at number 23 of this street in 1895, adding literary significance to the location.

The quay connects to public transportation through TCL services and includes Vélo'v bicycle stations, making it accessible for both residents and visitors.

Multiple traboules, hidden passageways typical of Lyon, link buildings on the quay to Rue Saint-Georges, including number 19 connecting to number 47.
