The printing museum took place in the city that was one of the capitals of the printing press in the 15th and 16th centuries. The hotel traces the history of the book and graphic techniques. It is located in the former City Hall of Lyon, former Crown Hotel.

The museum's collections have continued to expand his last years. This, we find no less than 1,200 m² devoted to permanent and temporary exhibitions. Include exploring a copy of the closet against the Mass (1534), or a clandestine printing press.
