Lyon – Several stickers, bearing the image of the “Butcher of Lyon”, Klaus Barbie, head of the Gestapo in Lyon between 1943 and 1944, were affixed to lampposts in the 7th arrondissement of Lyon, not far from the Center for the History of Resistance and Deportation (CHRD).

On site, there were three of these stickers on rue Pasteur, in front of the University Restaurant on the Quays, a few meters from the Center for the History of Resistance and Deportation (CHRD) based on avenue Berthelot . 

All stickers have been partially or almost completely torn off by one or more people. But one of the stickers still visible on a pole in the street is displayed in such a way as to suggest that Klaus Barbie is looking at the CHRD, located across the street.
