The Centre-ville of Grenoble is the historic and shopping heart of the city. It is organised around the place Grenette, the place Victor-Hugo and the Notre-Dame cathedral, linked by the rue Félix Poulat, within a wide pedestrian zone.

The Grenette, Notre-Dame, Créqui-Victor Hugo, Jean Jaurès, Préfecture, Saint-André and Hoche areas make up that dense heart, crossed by the tram.
The district brings together the great squares of the city: Grenette, Victor-Hugo, Verdun and the square du Docteur Martin, around which shops, cafés and public offices are spread.
