Palais de Justice, Lyon France
Located at Quai Romain Rolland, on the right (west) bank of the Saone, the Palais de Justice de Lyon is often called the 'Palace of the twenty-four columns'. This is one of the finest neo-classical buildings in France.  Construction was completed in 1842, under the direction of architect Louis-Pierre Baltard.  In 1996, it was classified as monument historique.
