Capital of the Loire department, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, Saint-Étienne, "Sainté" for regular visitors, is a student destination and stamped by UNESCO "creative city for design". Former industrial capital of Europe (19th century), the city was the cradle, in the last century, of many innovations that changed the world. The first railway line was laid and one of the first trams was installed. Manufrance and its catalogue, a pioneer in mail order sales, was created there. The water wheel, an energy source on an industrial scale, was invented in Saint-Étienne... It is a heritage that still testifies to this today through the city's neighbourhoods. But today is the era of design in Saint-Étienne. You should see the Hôtel des ingénieurs and the fresco of La pince à dents qui fait rire, the Musée d'art moderne et contemporain, the Mine Muséum and the Musée d'Art moderne, the Cité du design and the Manufacture creative district. It is necessary to be on the lookout for contemporary works of art that adorn the city. Look for Philippe Million's multi-coloured Tree, Assan Smati's Blue Horses. Stock up on local products at Halles Mazerat. The renovated Place de l'Hôtel de Ville gives a new character to the city centre. A getaway from Mont Pilat, nearby, is a must during a stay in Stephan. In the meantime, walk through one of the city's green spaces, sit on the terrace of a café, take the time to choose a good restaurant. Your favorite tour guide will help you do this.
