A real historical landmark is the building in which the city market is located. It was built in 1898. For more than a hundred years in this lovely building built of red brick, local farmers sell their best products. The market sells seasonal vegetables and fruits. Here is the place to go for the most fragrant and sweet oranges and lemons.
Not far from the market is the miniature Anglican Church of 1868, which has almost completely preserved its original appearance since its inception. In the tiny church with a tiled roof, old decorations were also preserved. Its visitors will be able to see beautiful old icons and other religious attributes of the 19th century.
In the immediate vicinity of Menton, there are also many interesting excursion sites. Here you can visit the village of Sainte Agnes. It is located in a picturesque mountainous area and is considered one of the most beautiful villages of France. The main historical symbol of the village is the ancient fort, Maginot Sainte Agnes. It is the most high-seaside village in Europe, which is located at an altitude of about 800 meters above sea level. From some streets of the village, a classy view of the coast opens.
No less interesting and beautiful is the mountain village of Saurge. Its amazing historical appearance is also preserved. In this village, there is a Franciscan monastery, which was founded in 1633. This village is located in a remote mountainous area, so tourists can visit it very rarely.
