Ville de Saint-Symphorien-d'Ozon
Villa Louvier is located in the bourgeois house of Dupoizat Park. This heritage center offers the triple interest to present and explain the history, the traditional know-how (the galoche and the printing on fabrics), as well as the natural environments of a commune formerly dauphinoise. He then relates the history of art from the Romanesque style to contemporary architecture, through local examples. Finally, a temporary exhibition room upstairs welcomes sculptures, photogaphies and paintings of contemporary artists. Antonin Louvier (1818-1892), Lyon architect and builder of the estate and originally from Saint-Symphorien-d'Ozon, is known for having built the Prefecture of the Rhone.
