Getting to ENS Lyon
The École normale supérieure de Lyon is located in the Gerland district, in the south of Lyon, near the Pasteur Bridge, on the left bank of the Rhône. It is easy to find, close to the Halle Tony Garnier.
With its two smokestacks, the building resembles a large boat.
Only the main entrance is freely accessible to the public.
