Île Barbe

The Île Barbe is an island situated in the middle of the Saône, in the 9th arrondissement de Lyon, the quartier (a former-commune annexed in 1963). Its name comes from the Latin insula barbara, "Barbarians' Island", suggesting that it was one of the last locales to be occupied (two centuries after the banks of the Saône at the foot of the hill of Fourvière).
