Bron

Bron lies on the eastern Rhône plain, a built-up stretch between Lyon and the low ground leading toward the Alps. Though a separate commune, it is closely connected to metropolitan Lyon by tram and road, with the city centre just to the west. Aviation is central to Bron’s identity: Lyon–Bron Airport, inaugurated in 1924, served as the region’s main airport before commercial traffic moved to Lyon–Saint-Exupéry. The Musée de l’Aviation Clément Ader documents this heritage, while Fort de Bron recalls the nineteenth-century defensive ring built around Lyon. The commune is also home to the Hôpital Femme Mère Enfant. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare urban settings across metropolitan Lyon.
