Fort Vancia
Built between 1874 and 1878, Fort Vancia is part of the second defensive belt of the city of Lyon. France. Designed by General Séré de Rivières, the 14 forts, including Fort Vancia, served to protect the city from Prussian and Italian invasions. The secondary objective was to contain Lyon's uprisings such as the Canuts' Revolt (1831, 1834, and 1848).
Covered in vegetation, Fort Vancia is intentionally inconspicuous, cleverly concealed from potential attacks but high enough to overlook the Ain plains and potential enemies. The total area encompassing the land around the fort is 240,000 m² (24 hectares). 57,000 m² in the Rillieux-la-Pape area, 120,000 m² in the Sathonay-Village area, and the remaining 63,000 m² still belong to the French Army. The built-up area of 16,000 m² could accommodate 500 men in peacetime and up to 800 in wartime. The fort was equipped with an infirmary, two kitchens, a bakery with two bread ovens, two powder magazines, two stables, three wells, one of which is still in use, as well as numerous military units. During the Second World War, before the area was occupied by the Germans, the northern ditch surrounding the fort was used as a test bench for the first French liquid-fueled rocket, designed clandestinely in Lyon by Colonel Jean-Jacques Barré.
At the end of the war, the army quartered reservists and volunteers there, also serving as a training center for construction trades before welcoming troops leaving for Algeria in 1962. It was then the training ground for the 99th regiment of Sathonay-Camp and its reservists from the 299th until 1990. From 2002, the Fort opened to the public every year during the European Heritage Days, the 3rd weekend of September with guided tours, upon registration. Since 2015, the Vanci’Aventure company has offered treetop adventure courses in part of the Fort and on the walls of the moat for all ages. In 2016, the Joint Agricultural Exploitation Group ‘les pleurotes rhodaniennes’ moved into one of the barracks for mushroom production. Recently, following the restoration of the wood-fired ovens, the Fortnil company has been producing bread sold in local shops and markets. Today, the fort is home to seven other businesses and a woodcarving workshop. A flock of 30 sheep helps maintain the 50,000 m² of outdoor space.
I noticed that the 2-km promenade around Fort Vancia is particularly confortable by very hot days, being protected by the dense trees population rendering the fort completely invisible. The temperature could a few degrees less than elsewhere. The entrance courtyard is beautifully shaded by majestic plane tree where the cars could be left, protected from the intense sun.
For a second photo session on August 16, 2025 (also a very hot day), I brought along with me my backup Olympus OM-1 SLR camera (see below for details) fitted with its standard lens G.Zuiko Auto-S 1:1.4 f=50 mm. The lens was equipped either with a 49mm anti-UV protective filter or an orange one, plus an original Olympus OM-System soft shade hood. The camera was loaded with the novel black-and-white film Kentmere Pan 200 from Ilford Harman Technology Ltd, UK. The film integrate the Kentmere line of products with the yellow color between the Kentmere Pan 100 (cyan color) and the Kentmere Pan 400 (magenta color) with an intermediate sensitivity of 200 ISO. The emulsion is coated on a 0.125mm thick regular cellulose tri-acétate base, uncommonly very clear without the traditional grey or blueish anti-halo mask.
Frames were exposed following my external Minolta Autometer III either with its 10° selective viewer or the opalescent dome for incident metering (200 ISO with an anti-UV filter or 100 ISO with the orange filter).

After the last view exposed (Nr. 26), the film was developed iwith 350 mL of Adox Adonal developer (identical to the original Agfa Rodinal in its formula of 1891) prepared at the dilution 1+25 . The film was processed for 10 min at 20°C.
Digitizing was made using a Sony A7 camera (ILCE-7, 24MP) held on a Minolta macro Auto Bellow device fitted with Minolta Macro Bellow lens 1:3.5 f=50mm with the Minolta slide duplication accessory. The light source was a LED panel (approx. 4x5') CineStill Cine-lite.
The RAW files obtained were inverted within the latest version of Adobe Lightroom 14 (14.5, August 2025) and edited to the final jpeg pictures without intermediate file. They are presented either as print files with frame or the full size JPEG's possibly together with some documentary smartphone color pictures.

About the camera :
My Olympus OM-1 MD was purchased from a local photography shop in Lyon, France, May 31, 2022.
Olympus OM-1 MD was commercially available from 1974 to 1978 and represented the fully mechanical SLR of a new class ("miniature SLR's") , smaller and lighter than any other SLR's of that time. It prefigured the size of most of the SLR's of the 80's.
The kit included the normal lens G.Zuiko Auto-S 1:1.4 f=50 mm in perfect condition, a Zuiko Auto-Zoom 1:4 f=75-150 mm with Olympus original rigid case, a Sigma Tele-Macro x2 converter, a small flash Olympus PE200 (GN 14 at 100 ISO) with case, A Crystal Titanium x 0.48 wide-angle converter (still never tested), and several 49 mm filters.
This specific OM-1 MD was constructed in Jan. 1976 according to the printed reference "ス ("su ") 615" on the back of the film plate.
Recently, while checking the camera (as I do periodically), I found the body blocked with impossibility to cock the shutter with the advance lever while I did not notice any trouble during the last two films done with it during the last winter. I found from eBay in Germany a spare OM-1 body while waiting the response of my local repair service if my OM-1 could be salvaged or not. My backup OM-1 is in a very good condition. The CdS light meter is working but completely out of calibration. The focusing screen is very clean and has the horizontal stigmometer while the other OM-1 has a 45° tilted one. The light seals and mirror dampers were renewed by the seller.
