The City of Lyon plans to open the first open-air municipal crèche in France

Children enrolled in the associative crèche, one third of whom are disabled, will spend the day outdoors regardless of the season.

A first in France: Lyon will be hosting two crèches by the end of 2025 – 100% outdoor. Inspired by the Nordic countries, they will rely on the benefits of living outside, summer and winter.

A concept unique in France arrives in the 3rd arrondissement of Lyon.

"An avant-garde structure", salutes the City, which intends to duplicate the concept, unique in France, this year.

"We think of things so that they can be done, by default, outside". Both in summer and in winter. This is the objective of the first outdoor crèche in Lyon, which will be born in the Mandela Park in the 3rd arrondissement next autumn, east of the Part-Dieu station.
