St Etienne Airport

About St Etienne

St Etienne has done a lot recently to throw of the image of being rather dark, dour and industrial - St Etienne is known as the Ville Verte (green town). Place de Peuple is fairly lively but the city’s two main attractions are indoors: Musée d’Art et d’Industrie and the Musée d’Art Moderne. The first will grab anyone’s attention who likes mechanical things and the second is for contemporary art lovers and includes works by Andy Warhol.

Nearby, St-Hâon-le-Châtel is a fortified hilltop village with several dramatic imposing towers and gates. Also near St Etienne is the Château de la Roche, Saint Priest which thanks to an artificial barrage looks moated. Montbrison off the A72 on the way down to St Etienne makes for a pleasant detour. Despite being damaged during the Hundred Years’ War and Wars of Religion, the 13-14th century gothic church of Notre Dame d’Espérance has an imposing facade, large nave and 42m high tower.
