Notes: The Château de Saint-Cyr is a former castle founded in the 3rd quarter of the twelfth century, rebuilt in 1210, the remains of which stand in the municipality of Saint-Cyr-au-Mont-d'Or in the city of Lyon region Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.
The tower is the subject of a registration as a historic monument by decree of 18 February 1926. The castle dates from the late twelfth century. It was in the form of a quadrangular crenellated walls with towers. The square tower, erected on the side of the attack, is still above 21 meters; in the seventeenth century, as it threatened ruin, we reduced the 6 meters. Another tower was still visible in 1830.
The old chapel became the parish church.
