Of course, Cannes would not be Cannes without its Old Port, its Festival and Congress Palace, its Suquet and its Croisette. But it would not be the same without its mythical palaces, classified 5 stars, which we come to admire and photograph, because we cannot stay there.

Inseparable from the Cannes identity, La Croisette is this chic French boulevard known for embodying the spirit of rhinestones and sequins.

Between Cannes and the visitors, the Croisette is not jealous. She offers a little of her Mediterranean fairy tale to anyone who likes the stride. But in the context of a palace, its availability is more limited.

Palais des Festivals et des Congres of Cannes

Reducing the city’s history to the movies is a classic, but if you take the time to look a little further, you realize that there is much more to it than that. Away from the spotlight and the animation of the centre of Cannes, the Suquet, or the “summit” if translated from Provençal, emerges.

It is in full ascent, towards the highest point of the Suquet, that you cross the road of this rather discreet site of interest. Built in the 12th century to provide a site for observation and surveillance against enemy attacks in the citadel, the tower has its name and history attached to one of the most legendary French figures.

Eglise Notre Dame d'Esperance
Pass by
When we see the breathtaking view that this church has over the Bay of Cannes, we have to think that not all religious buildings can boast of having such a privilege. Located at the very top of the historic Suquet district, Notre-Dame-d’Espérance Church took more than a hundred years to be born.

Musee Des Explorations Du Monde

Nestled in the remains of the medieval castle of the abbots of Lérins since 1919, the Musée des explorations du monde is a real cultural emblem of Cannes. The former Castre Museum is the result of important donations, the first of which dates back to the 19th century.

The Suquet Tower, a remnant of the city’s fortifications, was built between the 11th and 12th centuries on the initiative of the Abbots of Lerins. Thanks to its 22 meters high, it was once possible to monitor the Bay of Cannes, which was plagued by numerous enemy attacks, both land and sea.

Eglise Notre-Dame de Bon Voyage
Pass by
With La Croisette and the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès nearby, it is true that Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Voyage church can hardly take centre stage in Cannes. However, in its presence, it is an opportunity to experience the unusual pleasure of a Cannes au naturel, and nothing but au naturel.

Rue d'Antibes
Pass by
Parallel to the Croisette, the Rue d’Antibes is the undeniable jewel of Cannes “Shopping”. Built in 1914, and named after the old road that led to Antibes, this artery is today one of the busiest in the city center.

Centre d'art La Malmaison at Cannes

In perpetual exchange with the Croisette and the sea in the background, this little building is the only remaining piece of what was once the Grand Inn. Built in 1863, this large-scale establishment hosted several gaming and tea rooms in addition to its 150 rooms.
