Montélimar's town hall impresses with its classical architecture and the charming townscape of this southern French town. It was built in the 19th century and served for a long time as the administrative center of the region. Visitors particularly appreciate the elegant facades and the small square in front of it for photos. Tours of the town hall offer insights into the town's history and cultural heritage.

The greenway will take you to the Valdaine plain to discover its pretty villages.

Very beautiful town hall in the heart of the city

The most beautiful view of the Jabron. The river in the heart of the Drôme connects Montélimar on the Rhône with Comps in the mountains north of Dieulefit over a length of 39 km. At the beginning of the 19th century, ceramic, wool and silk factories were built along the river. The Jabron was the backbone of this industrial development, it provided energy in the form of hydropower and supplied the manufacturing processes with the necessary amount of water available all year round. Since the river is not navigable, the railway line was built. Part 7 of the Petit Train du Picodon bike tour.

Despite many owners and numerous changes since 1339, the castle remains primarily associated with one person: Émile Loubet. The French President acquired the castle in 1903 as a summer residence. As a son of the region and a senator, Loubet campaigned for the region and the construction of the local railway. While the castle is now used privately, the park and former castle garden can be enjoyed by everyone. Part 2 of the Petit Train du Picodon bike tour.

A park for everyone. The Parc Municipal Émile Loubet was originally part of the garden of the adjacent castle. That changed with the French President Émile Loubet (1899-1906). Coming from the region, as the previous owner, he allowed the village community to use it publicly. This spirit is still there. For the students and teachers of La Bégude-de-Mazenc, it is a place for activities in the fresh air. Part 1 of the Petit Train du Picodon bike tour.
