Les Opéras
de Montpellier Méditerranée
Métropole / K9 / L10
As a centre for French culture,
Montpellier, boasts two opera
houses: the Comédie Opera
(1888) and Berlioz Opera (1990).
DISCOVER
HISTORIC CENTRE
Place de la Comédie / L9
The true centre of Montpellier!
This oval-shaped plaza,
dominated by the Comédie
Opera House, is one of the
largest pedestrian areas in
Europe and was designed in the
18th century.
© OT Montpellier - Celine Escolano
Les 3 Grâces / L9
Created in 1773 by Etienne
d’Antoine, the Three Graces
statue-fountain (Aglae,
Euphrosine and Thalie) in
the middle of the Place de la
Comédie is one of the symbols of
Montpellier. The original statue
is in the hall of the Comédie
Opera House.
Ancien amphithéâtre
Saint-Côme / K9
The Hôtel Saint-Côme mansion
was built in 1757 by architect
Jean-Antoine Giral, with funds
bequeathed by François Gigot
de Lapeyronie, to be used as
an amphitheatre for a surgery
school up until the Revolution.
It now houses the Chamber of
Commerce and Industry.
Tour de la Babote / K9
One of the two remaining towers
of the 14th century ramparts, the
Tour de la Babote was renovated
in the 18th century to house the
astronomy observatory of the
Academy of Science.
Église et quartier
Saint-Roch / K9
Saint-Roch is the patron Saint of
Montpellier, where he was born.
It welcomed pilgrims along the
Way of St James to Santiago de
Compostela. The 19th century
Church houses his remains.
Quartier Sainte-Anne / K9
Here you will find the Carré SteAnne – a deconsecrated church
used for exhibitions, as well as
the Music Conservatory and fine
instrument workshops making
violins, violas and cellos. Notice
the signs as you enter the plaza.
Some of these workshops may be
discovered on guided city tours.
Mikvé / K10
A Jewish ritual bath from the
12th century, the mediaeval
Mikveh shows the importance of
Montpellier’s Jewish community.
Accessible only via guided
tours run by the Tourist Office.
May be closed in the event of
archaeological excavations.
Good Tip! Accessible only
during guided tours run by the
Tourist Office. May be closed
in the event of archeological
excavations.
Palais de Justice / K10
Courthouse built in 1853 in
the neoclassical style, on the
site of the former Château des
Guilhem.
Arc de Triomphe / K10
At the end of the 17th century,
the king’s intendant decided
to erect this triumphal arch, a
copy of the gates of Paris, in
honour of Louis XIV, built where
one of the gates of the ancient
rampart used to be.
Good Tip! Follow a guided
tour and get on the top of the
triumphal arch.

La Faculté de Médecine / K10
Montpellier was only two
centuries old in 1181, when
its Lord Guilhem VIII signed a
surprising and far-reaching
edict. He declared that
anyone, regardless of religion
or background, could teach
medicine in Montpellier…
Thus was born, at the end of the
12th century, what is today one
of the oldest active medical
schools in the western world
Conservatoire d’anatomie / K10
Originally created for teaching
anatomy, the Conservatoire
was an unprecedented and
incomparable tool for many
generations of students before
present-day techniques for
exploring the human body
existed. Over 5,600 priceless
pieces are housed in a building
constructed in 1851.
Good Tip! Enter the
Faculty of Medicine and the
Conservatory of Anatomy during
a guided tour run by the Tourist
Office.
Jardin des Plantes / J10

oasis, just a few steps away

study of medicinal plants, it was
extended and opened to the
public in the 19th century.

PORT MARIANNE
& ODYSSEUM
9
New districts have emerged
in recent years, slowly moving the heart of the
city towards the southeast, in the
direction of the sea. Areas such as Antigone
by Ricardo Bofill, Les Rives du Lez, and
Port Marianne with its figurehead,
the City Hall designed by Jean Nouvel and
François Fontès. What is the common thread
that unites these new neighbourhoods?
Contemporary architecture by the greatest
architects of our time, in a verdant jewellery
box, perfect for strolling and relaxation.
And for shopping, there’s Odysseum!

Les rives du Lez / N9
The Lez is a coastal river that
provides the city with drinking
water. Enhanced by pedestrian
bridges and lined with trees,
the riverbanks offer an ideal
place for walks and bike rides.

Port Marianne
and the Town Hall / N8 / O8
The original idea for the Port
Marianne district in Montpellier
emerged more than 30 years
ago, and took shape in the 1990s
alongside the Consuls de Mer
area. Every year, new pieces are
added to this giant jigsaw puzzle.
Richter, Jacques Coeur, Parc
Marianne… every neighbourhood
contributes to the overall
structure. The designs have been
created by some of the world’s
