Traveler reviews
John Anderson
★★★★★5 months agoMy wife and I had a wonderful experience booking an English language tour of the House Brochier silk museum. We had two very friendly and helpful guides who are on staff at the museum walk us through the exhibit and give us free time to wander. They were so helpful giving us insight to the history of silk weaving in Europe, in France, and the key role Lyon has played in taking this industry to its highest level. So impressive the leading role House Brochier has had in all of this. I felt like I was connecting more deeply with Lyon by getting to know more about this distinctive industry here. And very cool how you can touch almost everything. OK, not the 6,000 thread Jacquard Loom, but almost everything else! My wife and I loved it, highly recommend!
Meg Schneider
★★★★★4 months agoThis was an unexpected delight! We visited with the Lyon card and appreciated the beautiful exhibits and discussion of how the family shifted the focus from designer dresses to military applications to modern art. Highly recommend!
