Where to stay in La Mouche
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Sleeping arrangements are Lyon's business, not La Mouche's. Gerland shares the same file. The only address the catalogue grants this quarter is the installation sportive du Pensionnat Assomption Bellevue, a school sports ground, which tells a traveller at once that beds, restaurants and platforms all sit under the wider name of the commune.

About La Mouche
What are the main landmarks in La Mouche?
A school ground, and that is all. The installation sportive du Pensionnat Assomption Bellevue is the sole entry the catalogue attaches to La Mouche, which puts the quarter among those parts of Lyon that hold no museum, no church and no monument worth a detour. The Gerland list is longer.
Visitors looking for something to stand in front of will be looking outside these streets.
What is the history of La Mouche?
The file offers no dates. La Mouche enters the record through Lyon and through the entry it shares with Gerland, an arrangement that leaves the quarter without a charter, without a founding year and without any event fixed to its name. One building stands in for the rest.
That is the installation sportive du Pensionnat Assomption Bellevue, and the archive says nothing about when it was raised.
Where is La Mouche?
A name inside Lyon rather than a place apart, La Mouche shares its record with Gerland and carries no measured area at all.
