A city of heritage and contemporary treasures, Montpellier is a Mediterranean crossroads, a destination of exceptional character. This beautiful city in the south of France has medieval origins, and the streets and squares of its city center, its 12th-century medical school and its historic monuments attract visitors from all over the world. It's also a modern metropolis, with original and innovative architecture, open to science, contemporary culture, tourism and leisure activities. But Montpellier has many other assets too.
