Comment
Rue du Sergent-Blandan, formerly Rue Saint-Marcel, Lyon 1er.
The street took its present form at least in the late 17th century. Until 1887, it was known as rue Saint-Marcel, while the part near the Saône was called rue Musique des Anges. The name "Saint-Marcel" was chosen after an ancient recluserie and city gate.
