Text description provided by the architects. The Gerland swimming pool, built in 1932 by architect Tony Garnier, a Grand Prix de Rome winner in 1899, and listed by the French Monuments Historiques authority, just received a spectacular extensive renovation. Situated within the Matmut Stadium de Gerland complex in Lyon, the Gerland Aquatic and Sports Center reimagines the "Athletes' Quarter", initiated but left incomplete by Tony Garnier. This project now provides a sports complex open to the public, school students, and the professional rugby team, Lyon Olympique Universitaire (LOU Rugby). The project includes a training performance center, offices for LOU Rugby, and an aquatic wellness and fitness center, all redesigned to meet current expectations.
