Soierie Vivante

The museum houses silk weavings from the seventeenth century to the present, and textiles from the fourteenth to eighteenth centuries in Europe. The Persian carpets on the first floor are especially worth seeing, most notably, you will see the weavers weaving many rare beautiful silk weavings with ancient looms. Artifacts related to the development of Lyon weaving technology are also displayed, most notably the documents that Louis XI allowed Lyon to trade in silk products.

The silk life hall can not only enjoy many different crafts of silk art, but also see many shops for sale here.

The silk industry was once a pillar industry in Lyon.

As the European silk capital of Lyon, to feel the textile industry workers' hard work, found the West to the private work!
