Prison Saint-Paul

2nd arrondissement of Lyon, France

Prison Saint-Paul, alternatively named Prison Saint-Paul - Saint-Joseph, was the maison d'arrêt of Lyon, France, located at 33 Cours Suchet in the Confluence quarter, 2nd arrondissement, just south of the Gare de Lyon-Perrache. The building, deemed too obsolete to continue in its purpose, became the subject of a real estate project from its closure in 2009. All prisoners were moved to the new prison of Corbas; the Catholic University of Lyon refurbished the site to open in 2015 a campus in the former prison.
