Place Saint-Jean is defined by the bronze fountain at its center, which depicts the baptism of Christ by John the Baptist. This pedestrian square sits in the heart of the Vieux Lyon district, tucked between the Saône River and the base of Fourvière Hill. It is dominated by the Cathédrale Saint-Jean-Baptiste, a building constructed over three centuries, from eleven seventy-five to fourteen eighty.
