Reconstruction

Follow-up of the work
2022 — 2023

Rebuilding work on the CCNR building began in late January 2022, more than four years after the fire responsible for its closure. The rebuild is also an opportunity to implement an ambitious improvement project. As far as possible, the two projects will be carried out simultaneously and are scheduled for completion in summer 2023.

Like the other buildings in the neighborhood, the CCNR soars imposingly into the sky. It offers residents a panoramic view of the town and Rhone Valley. The wooden structure, which burned down and was then abandoned in 2017, now looks like a huge sleeping barn that contains forgotten treasures. To wake it up, CCNR’s team, the Ministry of Culture and local elected officials decided to rebuild the parts that had burned down and take over the first floor to open it up to the town.”

Renovation of the CCNR building

The rebuild is being project managed by VARIANCE group under the aegis of the Municipality of Rillieux-la-Pape. The renovation work was begun in January 2022 with funding from public partners, in particular the State recovery plan, and consists of replacing the six beams of the load-bearing structure that were damaged by the fire. To do this, all the fixtures and fittings placed under these beams will be removed. Only materials that were damaged will be repaired or replaced with identical materials.

 

First floor upgrade

In addition to the renovation, this work will make it possible to carry out the upgrade to the CCNR building outlined in 2015 at the initiative of the Ministry of Culture. The project manager will be the original architect, Loïc Julienne.

What’s new:

  • Vast opening onto the forecourt
  • New reception area and dance space on the first floor
  • Improved energy efficiency
  • Enhanced building security

Building history

Built in 2005, the Centre Chorégraphique National in Rillieux-la-Pape was one of the first buildings in France specifically designed for a dance company, as well as a cultural space dedicated to dance. In this respect, the CCNR building is unique in France.
