Download or read book Guide de Lyon patrimoine mondial written by André Pelletier and published by Editions Lyonnaises d'Art et d'Histoire. This book was released on 2000 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'histoire du site de Lyon de l'Antiquité à nos jours est particulièrement originale. Alors que la plupart des grandes villes au passé ancien se sont agrandies par cercles concentriques, à Lyon le site s'est déplacé dans l'espace, dans le sens ouest-est. La colonie romaine de Lugdunum était sise sur la colline de Fourvière ; le bourg médiéval se développa d'abord sur la rive droite de la Saône, au pied de la colline, avant de gagner la presqu'île que la ville romaine avait déjà atteinte ; la ville de l'âge classique occupa toute la presqu'île ; enfin les XIXe et XXe siècles ont vu la ville s'installer largement sur la rive gauche du Rhône (plus de la moitié de la superficie de Lyon) qui symbolise aujourd'hui le dynamisme de la cité. Ce déplacement du centre de gravité de la ville en direction de l'Est, là où la place ne manquait pas, explique que se soient conservés des monuments de toutes les époques et que le site historique retenu dans le classement de l'UNESCO s'étende sur les quartiers qui ont constitué la ville des origines à nos jours.
