The history of the district

La Grette stretches to the south-west of Besançon, on the edge of the centre, and forms with la Butte a group of residential districts. The area borders Velotte, Saint-Ferjeux, Planoise and the town centre. It is divided into several sub-areas: Grette, Vieilles Perrières, Villarceau and Xavier-Marmier. The district was largely built between the two world wars, and the great majority of the homes in the Grette area are detached houses typical of the 1920s and 1930s.

The district is essentially residential, with a stock dominated by detached and semi-detached houses, dotted with a few public facilities and services.

The immediate proximity of the banks of the Doubs and of the town centre, together with the quiet of the detached-house streets, makes it an area appreciated by families. It is on the whole a fairly well-off district on the scale of the town.
