5th arrondissement

The medieval 5th arrondissement surrounds the ornate Basilique Notre Dame de Fourvière and centuries-old Cathédrale Saint-Jean-Baptiste, noted for its astronomical clock. Open-air concerts are held at the Théâtre Gallo Romain, with Roman relics shown in the Gallo-Roman Museum of Lyon-Fourvière. Elegant mansions line the River Saône, while hilly streets lead to fine-dining restaurants and bars serving Beaujolais wine.
