Can you imagine a street named after a farmer? Here on Rue Jean-Pierre Brédy, that’s exactly what we find. Rue Jean-Pierre Brédy was named after a local farmer. He lived near the “Sisters’ Chapel”, which was actually his stable at the time. This area, once known as the Buers district, holds a piece of Brédy’s legacy. He donated land to the city in the late 19th century. This donation allowed for the expansion of the road we now stand on, Rue Jean-Pierre Brédy. A descendant, Madame Pélardy, later confirmed this story, connecting the street to her grandfather’s generosity. He was born in Villeurbanne, on December 3, 1855. He resided on Chemin des Buers, close to what was once referred to as the “Sisters’ Chapel.” The city council records from February 12, 1888, document the land transfer from Brédy, further solidifying his contribution to Rue Jean-Pierre Brédy’s development. So, as you stroll along Rue Jean-Pierre Brédy, remember the farmer whose land helped shape this part of Villeurbanne.
