Centre, the shopping heart of Roanne. Google Maps.
Centre occupies the heart of Roanne, on the left bank of the Loire, around the pedestrian rue Nationale, the place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville and the Joseph-Déchelette museum. It is the historic core of the town, the one that came before industry and has kept the shopping and administrative functions.
The district takes in the La Varenne area, which extends the centre eastwards towards the river. The built fabric mixes older town-centre buildings, nineteenth-century facades and small post-war developments, in a dense fabric where parking is the first thing that sets two properties apart.
