Irigny
France, France
Irigny is a small commune in eastern France, located in the Rhône department within the Auvergne‑Rhône‑Alpes region, just about 10–12 km south‑west of the city centre of Lyon.
It lies along the banks of the Rhône River and on the surrounding hills, giving it a mix of riverside landscape and higher‑ground views over the valley. The town covers around 8.8 km² and has a population of roughly 8,500–9,000 residents, known as Irignois, living in a quiet, semi‑rural setting close to Lyon’s urban economy.
Irigny combines residential areas with farmland and green spaces, and it preserves some historic elements such as an old castle (now converted into a library) and a Romanesque chapel, making it a modest but pleasant residential town with a gentle countryside feel.
