The history of the district

The Montaud district occupies a hill north of the centre of Saint-Étienne, one of the hills that shape the city. It brings together the Grand Clos area and the surroundings of the parc de Montaud, the largest municipal park in Saint-Étienne with about 55 hectares of woods and meadows, tiered between 540 and 642 metres of altitude. Its elevated position offers open views over the city and the valley.

Long an independent hill, Montaud was merged into Saint-Étienne in 1855. Its building stock carries the memory of the two great industries of the city, coal mining and ribbon weaving: former weavers' houses can still be found here, recognisable by their large workshop windows on the garden side. When mining ended in the 1960s, residents organised into a neighbourhood committee to preserve the natural and heritage character of the area.

Valued for its green setting, its views and its residential atmosphere, Montaud sits in the middle of the Saint-Étienne market. Supply mixes period houses, detached houses and apartments, in a quiet area close to the centre, sought after by families and by buyers looking for space and greenery.
