A stroll through Clermont-Ferrand, to discover the Place de la Rodade, the Musée d'Art Roger-Quilliot, the Volvic galleries...

Montferrand was from the 12th to the 17th century a bastide close to Clermont. In 1630, the Edict of Troyes united the two cities, a union confirmed in 1731. The medieval and Renaissance town prospered under the shelter of impressive 1,772 m long ramparts. To discover the courtyards of the private mansions, with their spiral staircases and superimposed galleries made of Volvic stone, you must push open a few doors! Venture out for a nice walk, between the Place de la Rodade and the Roger-Quilliot Art Museum, passing by the Notre-Dame de Prospérité church or the Place Marcel-Sembat.

Généralement les visiteurs arpentent les rues de Clermont et ignorent Montferrand.
C'est une erreur, il est possible de se procurer une guide de visite sur le site de Visorando qui a appelé son guide "Montferrand l'oublié" ! Il faut environ 1h30 pour effectuer cette visite, regarder les facades du XII eme, les petites cours intérieures et s'imprégnier de l'histoire de cette petite commerçante, pleine de charmes.

Montferrand n'est plus qu'un quartier de Clermont Ferrand, mais quel quartier. Il mérite amplement le détour, d'autant qu'il est bien desservi par le tramway. On peut suivre le circuit tracé dans la ville pour voir les principaux monuments et en apprendre plus sur l'histoire de l'ancienne ville. On pourra notamment découvrir des bâtiments en pierre de volvic ou encore les remparts et son jardin d'eau.
