Quartier Préfecture / Moncey Lyon 3
Moncey Prefecture: a residential area spared from cultural tourists and business tourists
The Préfecture district is one of the most sought-after in the 3rd arrondissement, offering a mix of administrative offices and luxury residential buildings.
This area is particularly attractive to professionals and expatriates thanks to its proximity to major commercial arteries, modern workspaces, and good public transportation connections.
The presence of the Préfecture, an iconic monument, gives this neighborhood a historical feel while remaining resolutely forward-looking.
The Moncay district is distinguished by its quiet, family-friendly atmosphere, yet close to the major shopping areas of Part-Dieu.
Primarily residential, Moncay attracts young families and expatriates seeking a peaceful living environment while remaining connected to the lively city center.
This area also benefits from close proximity to several parks and green spaces, combining a comfortable lifestyle with easy access to the heart of Lyon.
