All 7 places in La Condamine, with coordinates

Every place below has a short introduction and a deeper story in the Roots Earth app, in English, German, Spanish, Italian, French, Dutch and Albanian. The names, the coordinates (latitude, longitude) and the one line descriptions are the app's own catalogue values of 31 October 2026; a place without a line here has none that this page can print.

1. La Condamine Market

Coordinates
43.732506, 7.420091
In one line
La Condamine Market is a daily social institution rooted in Place d'Armes, older than any hall built to contain it. Produce, prepared food and neighbourhood conversation keep a nineteenth-century municipal foundation tied to ordinary Monaco.

2. Port Hercules and its floating breakwater

Coordinates
43.735, 7.426
In one line
Port Hercules is Monaco’s deep-water harbour, sheltered by the immense Rainier III breakwater. Its deceptively low concrete profile conceals the maritime engineering that made room for cruise ships, superyachts and hundreds of smaller craft.

3. Church of Sainte-Dévote

Coordinates
43.737506, 7.420976
In one line
This modest church marks the devotional heart of Monaco’s bond with its patron saint. Its relic shrine, princely associations and annual boat-burning ceremony layer documented history with a much older maritime legend.

4. Prince of Monaco's Car Collection

Coordinates
43.7354011, 7.4218114
In one line
This purpose-built portside museum presents the Prince of Monaco’s collection of road, ceremonial and competition vehicles. Its machines trace changing technology while preserving journeys, weddings and racing stories linked to Monaco’s rulers.

5. Exotic Garden of Monaco

Coordinates
43.7312785, 7.4141717
In one line
Clinging to a cliff above La Condamine, this historic garden turns a vast succulent collection into a landscape of terraces, bridges and belvederes, uniting botanical spectacle with remarkable views across Monaco.

6. Observatory Cave and Museum of Prehistoric Anthropology

Coordinates
43.7327021, 7.4138441
In one line
A limestone cave and a scientific museum share this cliffside site, pairing mineral formations deep inside the rock with tools, bones and burials that illuminate an immense span of human prehistory.

7. Monaco Cemetery

Coordinates
43.7292008, 7.4117648
In one line
Terraced into the hillside above Fontvieille, Monaco’s municipal cemetery combines marble tombs, covered galleries and intimate memorials, preserving stories of individual lives, wartime loss and changing funerary customs.
