Beneath the rustling leaves of Parc Sergent Blandan, a story unfolds. This isn’t just any park. Parc Sergent Blandan breathes history. Once the site of the Caserne Sergent Blandan, a military barracks also known as “Fort Lamothe,” this 17-hectare space transformed into a public park in 2013. Imagine, soldiers marching where children now play. Cannons replaced by laughter. Parc Sergent Blandan isn’t just a park; it’s a testament to Lyon’s ever-evolving spirit. The park boasts three distinct areas. A multi-purpose square to the north bustles with activity. To the south, an ecological area offers a tranquil escape. And at the heart? A central garden embraces the barracks’ historic ramparts. As you wander, look for traces of the old military marking system: simple red circles. These have been reimagined into sculptural signage, guiding you through the park’s stories. Did you know Parc Sergent Blandan is the third largest park in Lyon? Only Parc de la Tête d’Or and Parc de Gerland surpass it in size. As the sun sets, casting long shadows across the grass, those red circles glow, bathed in light. They become beacons, inviting you to explore, to discover, to become a part of Parc Sergent Blandan’s ongoing story.
