Château de la Jayère stands in 9e arrondissement de Lyon (Rhône), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
Perched on a hillside in Lyon's 9th arrondissement, on the edge of the Monts d'Or, this former country house overlooks the Saône plain and the basilica of Fourvière. Its rectangular four storey outline, covered in red render and topped with slate corner pavilions, stands out from a distance. The grounds also include a pavilion with a two tone tiled roof, a half timbered house and a neo medieval watchtower crossing a small stream by a footbridge. The château is privately owned and cannot be visited.
