OLD CARGO
In the 18th century, Carouge was home to about 450 artisans. The toponymy of the roads and the architecture of the houses of the city testify to this past wealth. A new city built according to a checkerboard plan, the old districts are articulated around the current Ancienne and Vautier streets. Do not hesitate to explore these small streets to soak up the charm of this city, which already seems far from Geneva. In the past, the Genevans liked to come here to indulge themselves, in total contradiction with the austerity encouraged by the Calvinist ideas.
