Things to see and do in Grenoble
Centre National d'Art Contemporain
Counted amongst the best contemporary art museums in Europe, this vast glass warehouse is home to some of the more cutting edge artistic exhibitions in France.
Dauphinois Museum
Take a step into traditional Alpine culture at the Musée Dauphinois. The museum looks at real Alpine crafts and traditions and is set in a 17th century convent beneath Fort de la Bastille. This is a charming place to spend an interesting and scenic afternoon.
Musée de l'Ancien Évêché
Comprised of the impressive Notre Dame Cathedral and Bishop’s Palace right next door, the 14th century Musée de l'Ancien Évêché leads you deep into Grenoble history, literally right down into the church’s crypt and the city’s old Roman walls.
Lac Monteynard
A short drive out of Grenoble near La Mure is Lac Monteynard. Check out the footpath around this Alpine lake, which takes you across two footbridges high above the water. The views are simply incredible.
Place Grenette
This is the heart of Grenoble and is full of life throughout the day and night. On sunny days, it’s taken up almost entirely with bustling cafes and people enjoying the hot weather, while after dark it’s a hotspot for drinking and the epicentre of the city’s nightlife.
Fort de la Bastille
Catch the cable car from the riverside up to this staggering mountain fortress. The views from both the cable car and the fort itself are breathtaking.
