Lons-le-Saunier

Highlight • Other

Lons-le-Saunier is the capital of the Jura, it owes its prosperity to its salt mines (saunier in old French is the place where salt was produced). It has now become a spa town.

It is here that the famous Laughing Cow cheese was industrially designed and manufactured. You can also visit his house. Comté, Morbier, Mont D'or, the famous triptych of Jura cheeses are easily found here.

Its city center deserves to be known, because it presents beautiful buildings built in the classical style, as well as pleasant pedestrian streets.

Rouget de Lisle Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

La Marseillaise, a patriotic song from the French Revolution was first published in Marseille, before being adopted as the national anthem. It was the troops of the Federated Marseilles who, having adopted it as a marching song, intoned it during their triumphal entry into the Tuileries, in Paris, on July 30, 1792.

Its author, Rouget de Lisle is the most famous of the Lédonians (natives of Lons-le-Saunier). The song was first composed under the title War Song for the Army of the Rhine, in support of the Army of the Rhine in Strasbourg, following France's declaration of war on Austria in 1792.

His birthplace serves as a museum and is located at 24 rue des commerces. French history enthusiasts, run for it!

Lons-le-Saunier is a pretty town renowned for its salt springs. It is pleasant to stroll under the arcades, to take a break at Place de la Comédie or Place de la Liberté between the water jets.
