Created in 1885 by Lyonnais artist Gaspard Andr\u00e9 (yes, the same architect as the Th\u00e9\u00e2tre des C\u00e9lestins), it celebrates four great figures of Lyonnais art: Philippe de Champaigne, Germain Pilon, Guillaume Coustou, and Hippolyte Flandrin. These perfectly executed statues embody the city&#8217;s rich cultural and artistic heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">An amusing detail?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maintenance of the fountain, once a tedious job, was often entrusted to washers in overalls. One day, one of them slipped into the pool, causing widespread hilarity among passers-by&#8230; and a nice photo in the local press.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/section>\n\n\t<section\n\t\tstyle=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--theme-default);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--theme-default);\" class=\"block-container align wp-block-acf-block-container has-background has-white-background-color is-layout-flow wp-block-acf-block-container-is-layout-flow\"\t>\n\n\t\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\">Stories from the square<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">1- A lion on the move<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During a circus parade in the 1920s, a lion briefly escaped and crossed the Place des Jacobins, spreading panic among the inhabitants. Fortunately, the beast was quickly subdued. Since then, people have joked that the fountain is missing a lion statue.  <br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">2- Lovers of the Jacobins<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With its benches and soft night lighting, the square has become a popular spot for couples. Urban legend has it that making a wish under the light of a lamppost by circling the fountain three times will bring good luck to lovers. <br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">3- A movie set<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The timeless beauty of the square has made it a movie star.
