Menton - Old Town
|
|
Along the Montée des Logettes and the narrow rue Longue, the former main street of the Old Town of Menton, the atmosphere of which is thoroughly Italian (a tunnel now runs under this area), we pass the remains of the town fortifications. On the left an imposing flight of steps (Rampes St Michel) leads up to an observation terrace. Here on the left side of the Place de la Conception stands the Parish Church of St Michel (17th century; winged altar by Manchello 1569) and higher up is the Eglise de la Conception of 1685. Both churches are in the Italian Jesuit style.
