Activity itinerary

Place du Peuple (Pass by)

Here you are in the People’s Square, a name that resonates with the social history of St. Stephen and immediately reminds us of a popular square, such as Rome’s famous Piazza del Popolo, a gathering place by

LA DROGUERIE DE LA TOUR (Pass by)

Approaching this pretty round tower, it is hard to imagine that this is one of the oldest medieval remains of Saint-Étienne. This is the Tower of Drugs, the only survivor of the ramparts that surrounded the city

4 Rue du Théatre (Pass by)

Arriving in this street, it is impossible not to notice this large building with wooden frames and corbels: it is called the House of the Sheep on five legs. This name, which can make you smile, is a testament to the fact

31 Rue de la ville (Pass by)

This is the Chamoncel House, which everyone here calls the House of Francis I. But be careful, don't trust the name! The king never slept there, although he did spend well in the area in 1536. This beautiful house

Grand'Église de Saint-Étienne (Pass by)

Here you are in front of one of the oldest monuments of Saint-Étienne: the Great Church, as it is called here. Officially, it is the Church of Saint-Laurent-Saint-Étienne, a dual vocation. Saint Stephen, first

Délégation CCI Saint-Etienne Chambre de Commerce et d'Industrie (Pass by)

You are before one of the most beautiful witnesses of the industrial golden age of Saint-Étienne: the former Chamber of Commerce, now the Lawyers’ House. This building, installed in the then called the

Saint-Etienne (Pass by)

You are in front of the Forum bookshop, but did you know that you are on one of the most emblematic sites in the history of French commerce? It is here that in 1898 was born the Casino empire, one of the most

Place Hôtel de ville (Pass by)

Here you are in front of the Saint-Étienne City Inn, built at the beginning of the 19th century. Its neoclassical façade marks the historic centre of the city with its sober and elegant style. Watch the two statues that stand

Kiosque a Musique Place Jean Jaures Saint Etienne (Pass by)

Here, on Place Jean Jaurès at the back of the City Inn, let’s stop for a moment in front of this bust to discover the man whose name resonates in so many French cities. Approach this sculpture and

Cathédrale Saint-Charles-Borromée de Saint-Étienne (Pass by)

Welcome to Saint-Charles-Borromée Cathedral, one of the youngest cathedrals in France! Unlike the thousand-year-old gothic giants you already know, this one is just one hundred years old.

Rue José Frappa (Pass by)

On the other side of the square, opposite the prefecture, you can discover the bust of José Frappa, a prominent figure in the social and working class history of Saint-Étienne. José Frappa was a trade unionist and activist

16 Pl. Jean Jaurès (Pass by)

I just wanted to draw your attention to the building on your right corner. Look at its sculpted façade, and ornate balconies. If you look up, you will notice the inscription "Republican Law",

Montée du Crêt de Roc (Pass by)

If you want a beautiful view of Saint-Étienne and a souvenir photo worthy of the name, I invite you to climb the stairs of the Montée du Crêt de Roc. Once at the top, you will be rewarded with a beautiful panorama of the

21 Rue Léon Lamaizière (Pass by)

It’s hard to imagine today, but until the early 20th century, you would have been here in the middle of a tangle of narrow alleys, dominated by the old God Inn. Liberation Avenue did not exist. It's

L'hotel des Ingenieurs (Pass by)

Now you are at the corner of Avenue de la Libération and Rue du Grand-Moulin, in front of a building that does not go unnoticed. Large blonde stone facade, imposing pediment, sculpted details... Welcome to the front

La Martre de France (Pass by)

In front of you stands La Martre de France, one of the most spectacular architectural jewels of Saint-Étienne. With a name like that, we're already expecting something exceptional... and the facade keeps all its promises

Rue des Martyrs de Vingré (Pass by)

Here you are on the Rue des Martyrs-de-Vingré. A quiet pedestrian street, lined with shops and shop windows, in which you wander without necessarily thinking about what your name hides. And yet... that name tells a

Place Chavanelle (Pass by)

Here you are on Place Chavanelle, in the centre of Saint-Étienne. Today, it resembles a great urban breath, lined with cafes and punctuated by contemporary art. But imagine her a few days ago

Place Waldeck Rousseau (Pass by)

You are now on the Waldeck-Rousseau square. Take a look around you: on one side, Saint-Louis Church, on the other, the imposing building of the former Galeries Lafayette. Two styles, two stories, two
