Welcome to La Sablière, located in Caluire and Cuire, in the heart of the Bissardon district, overlooking the balmes of St Clair and the Rhône Valley. The first traces of this property date back to the 14th century! Since then, it has been variously exploited: sometimes for income from the vineyard, sometimes as a house of the fields in the hands of bourgeois or aristocratic families and finally as a permanent dwelling for rich Lyonnais silks from the 19th century.
Didier Petit de Meurville (1793-1873), owner of a Lyon factory for church ornaments, built the current bourgeois house while landscaping the English gardens. He received a series of legitimist personalities: the Duke of Montmorency-Laval, Lacordaire, the exiled Carlists, ... In 1849, Jean-Barthélémy Chazottier (1804-1891), a bourgeois enriched in the trade and manufacture of plain velvet, acquired it and carried out important works. While Jules Micol (1822-1900), painter of the Fine Arts of Lyon, lives with his father-in-law
