Description
Discover the evolution of Menton's seaside. Starting from the old fishermen's quarter of La Ciapetta, discover the changing links between the town and the Mediterranean.
The economy, long based on the citrus fruit trade and local fishing, was gradually transformed during the Belle Époque.
The town's seafront was profoundly altered, with the construction of a covered market and the creation of the Promenade du Soleil.
