Founded in 1984, the Alliance Française de Lyon (AFLyon) is the 1st French language school in Lyon. Each year, over 2,000 students from 130 countries come to the AFLyon to learn French in a friendly environment that promotes exchange, respect and intercultural dialogue.
The school is in the 3rd district of Lyon, in the heart of the city, 300 meters away from the banks of the Rhone river. It is very well served by public transport (bus, metro, tram) and it is a 15-minute walk from Part-Dieu train station.
