Saint-Claude, capital of the pipe

Highlight • Settlement

Pretty small town in a valley of the Jura, which is very rugged in this area. Even if you are here without any previous knowledge and for the first time, you can immediately see what the city is famous for: tobacco pipes. There are trash cans and flowers in the form of pipes, a pipe museum and souvenir shops with pipes. In addition, the Cathedral of St. Pierre catches the eye from afar

The Pipe of Saint-Claude

Highlight • Monument

This imposing sculpture which sometimes smokes, is in front of the museum of the pipe and the diamond of Saint-Claude. The inhabitants of this town, like many others in the Jura, sculpted diamonds and pipes during the long winter months to earn additional income. Modernization coming from this custom has become industry.
