Project ›› Passerelle de la Paix, Lyon

working since
2014

The “Passerelle de la Paix”, litterally translated the “Footbridge of Peace”, was designed by Dietmar Feichtinger Architectes and Schlaich Bergermann Partner. It links the town of Caluire to the Cité internationale in the 6th district of Lyon.

The aerial architecture of this major civil engineering project, measuring 220 meters-long for the higher part of the promenade (and 156 meters-long for the lower part) “gives the impression that it came to rest naturally on the river Rhône” says Gérard Collomb, senator and mayor of Lyon. To him, this footbridge marks the north entry of Lyon that you can “see night and day”.

Up-lighting of the promenade :
The architect’s will was to obtain a continuous, homogeneous and enlightening line of light. The 5623-Brunei lightbars SE120 LED/m in warm white 120° (25 x 25mm) are clipped into the E1, and are smoothly integrated into the handrail. The benches are also up-lighted with the 5623-Brunei lightbars, which are integrated underneath each bench of the footbridge.
