The Fontaine du Lion is located on the left bank of l'Isère, the river that goes through Grenoble (French Alps). It is also erected at the bottom of stairs that leads to the Musée Dauphinois, very popular and free of charge, donations are welcome! If you're fit, or want to be fit, you can continue climbing the stairs, mostly steep, up the small abrupt mount where a fortress called "La Bastille" oversees the 3 valleys leading to Grenoble. A modern - in its time - cable car will take you effortless from Grenoble Jardin de Ville to the heart of the fortress. I'd say you're a fool if you go to Grenoble and miss the Bastille, not to mention the truly fantastic vues of the town of Grenoble and its 3 valleys, the Chaîne de Belledone generously coated with snow you'd love to dive in....

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I met Monsieur Neuvillette here... We had a very nice chat. Would definitely recommend this place. It's gorgeous. I also think I saw Furina here.

The line was quite long, but it went by pretty quickly. Make sure you have tickets in advance.

The staff was EXTREMELY nice when my ticket had fallen out of my pocket. They literally checked the security camera footage just to see where I lost it, and luckily I got it back and was able to see this amazing sight. Thank you so much...

It was pretty nice, some twin magicians performed a show for me, but this ginger dude keeps managing to find me everywhere I go! It’s very annoying and every single time I turn around he’s just screaming “Hey girly, hold still!” Like, it’s getting kind of annoying but this time I saw that he had been arrested so that’s great, there was also this wierd wolf looking guy that I kept seeing out of the corner of my eye. 5 stars (Genshin Community, how have you not infected this place yet?

It was pretty nice, some twin magicians performed a show for me, but this ginger dude keeps managing to find me everywhere I go! It’s very annoying and every single time I turn around he’s just screaming “Hey girly, hold still!” Like, it’s getting kind of annoying but this time I saw that he had been arrested so that’s great, there was also this wierd wolf looking guy that I kept seeing out of the corner of my eye. 5 stars (Genshin Community, how have you not infected this place yet? I am disapointed with y’all)

It's a beautiful fountain and sculpture, marking the first time the name of the city of Grenoble was written. It is also the beginning of two paths to the Bastille, to the left it leads to the Musée Dauphinois and the abandoned buildings, and to the right it goes straight to the mains Bastille trail. Lots of stairs.

Commandée par la ville de Grenoble en 1839 à Victor SAPPEY, cette fontaine réalisée en pierre de Sassenage et bronze, est inaugurée en 1843 au pied de la Bastille sur la rive droite de l’Isère. Ce thème de l'affrontement du lion et du serpent semble inspiré d’un vieux dicton dauphinois : « La serpen et lo drago/Mettront Grenoblo en savon ». En effet, dans la mythologie locale, la lutte entre le serpent, symbolisant l’Isère ondulant dans la plaine du Grésivaudan, et le dragon, incarnant le torrent impétueux du Drac, s'accomplit aux dépens de la ville puisque cent cinquante inondations ont ravagé Grenoble de l'époque romaine au début du XIXe siècle.
