Once at the Debourg station: (click on the pictures to enlarge) (well, the pictures are a bit outdated)

1) Exit through the front of the subway station Debourg. 2) You arrive on the avenue Jean-Jaurès. Walk till the traffic light.

3) At the traffic light, cross the avenue Jean-Jaurès (turn right). You are now on the Challemel-Lacour street. 4) Follow this street till the place des Pavillons (This location has dramatically changed: it is no more a parking, it is now a pedestrain area)

5) Engage under the porch of the place des pavillons. You are entering the allée d'Italie. 6) follow the allée d'Italie until the main building of the Ens-Lyon.

Whew, finally arrived.
BRAVO!

7) The main entrance lies on the left under the arch of the main building. There is always somebody at the desk. 8) The math research department, UMPA, lies on the 4th flour. When leaving the elevator, turn right twice to reach the center of the department.
