Location: Saint-Genis-Laval, Métropole de Lyon, Auvergne Rhône Alpes, France
Historically this fort covered the communes of Chaponost and Brignais. Today it is a place of remembrance for the 120 people killed on the spot by the Germans before evacuating Lyon. The tour of the Fort is pleasant and offers on its southern slope a great view of Saint-Genis-Laval below.
