Text: Marc Engelhard – The writing of Lyon People has undertaken to draw up an inventory of villas and properties – still standing or disappeared – which will be the subject of an architectural and historical presentation in our June 2025 magazine, alongside companies and businesses in Bron.
As part of this case, we are seeking information on the families, businesses and properties below.
Individuals
Trouilhet family
We are looking for information on the family of the founders of Calor who resided in Bron, and more particularly Maurice Trouilhet.
Mas Pré-Vieux
We would like to get in touch with the family of doctors who lived and worked in this house before its sale to the developer OGIC.
