It's a famous puppet of the French theatre. Guignol was invented by the Lyonnais "Laurent MOURGUET" ( 1769-1804 ).Many children love Guignol and it is the star of Lyon. It's the signature of the city. The Puppet is very old, but nobody forgot it.
It exist a specialy theatre for the puppet in Le Vieux Lyon. It's an beautiful and old theatre. In Lyon, there are many walls with a picture of Guignol.
The song of Guignol:
"Au feu!
Les pompiers, la maison qui brûle!
Au feu!
Les pompiers, la maison brûlée!"

Bonjour Maroussia et Clarisse!
Lyon est une très jolie ville. J'ai eu le plaisir de la visiter au printemps 2001.
Je me réjouis de la redécouvrir à travers votre blog.
