Postcards from Menton

Menton

Menton is a charming French city on the Mediterranean Sea, right on the border with Italy. It is located in the Alpes-Maritimes department, within the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, and had a population of approximately 30,300 on January 1, 2022.

Strategically situated between the French Côte d'Azur and the Italian Riviera dei Fiori, Menton forms a cultural and climatic transition zone. Just across the border lies the Italian city of Ventimiglia. Menton proudly bears the nickname "the pearl of France," and for good reason. With its picturesque sea views, baroque bell towers, and elegant facades, the city exudes an understated grandeur.

What makes Menton truly special is its unique microclimate. Thanks to this climatic advantage, lemon trees grow here where they are impossible elsewhere in France. It's no wonder the lemon is the city's symbol. Every February, Menton celebrates this citrus wonder with the Fête du Citron—a spectacular and colorful festival in which lemons literally take center stage.

Menton is een charmante Franse stad aan de Middellandse Zee, pal op de grens met Italië. Ze ligt in het departement Alpes-Maritimes, binnen de regio Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur en telde op 1 januari 2022 zo’n 30.300 inwoners.

Strategisch gelegen tussen de Franse Côte d’Azur en de Italiaanse Bloemenrivièra, vormt Menton een culturele en klimatologische overgangszone. Net over de grens ligt de Italiaanse stad Ventimiglia. Menton draagt trots de bijnaam "la perle de la France", en niet zonder reden. Met haar schilderachtige uitzicht op zee, barokke klokkentorens en elegante gevels straalt de stad een ingetogen grandeur uit.

Wat Menton écht bijzonder maakt, is het unieke microklimaat. Dankzij deze klimatologische gunst groeien hier citroenbomen waar dat elders in Frankrijk onmogelijk is. Niet voor niets is de citroen hét symbool van de stad. Elk jaar in februari viert Menton dit citruswonder met het Fête du Citron — een spectaculair en kleurrijk feest waarin citroenen letterlijk de hoofdrol spelen.
