    Bégude = "place where we drink".
    The district probably housed a post house.

      The fort of Feyzin is a fort built between 1875 to 1877 in the town of Feyzin. It is one of the links in the second belt of Lyon and more generally of the Séré de Rivières system. It currently houses an equestrian center run and managed by the UCPA on behalf of the city of Feyzin

      The fort was intended for the defense of Lyon to the south. It also ensured the protection of the fort of Champvillard, the RN7, Solaize, Saint-Symphorien-d'Ozon and the fort of Corbas.

      The Fort of Feyzin has throughout its history mainly served as a garrison place for the army, and the gendarmerie. The town became the owner in July 2003 and visits were organized there in particular for the 'fort en ballade' action and the European Heritage Days, with the discovery of the military path by the caponier, the postern staircase and the ditches, the entrance building and the overhead crane spanning a ditch, completely renovated as well as the botanical path.

      Thanks to the patronage of the Total foundation, the entrance building of the fort has been restored
