Le Pont-De-Claix: Culture, Science and Leisure
Accommodation in Le Pont-De-Claix
Le Pont-De-Claix offers a range of visitor attractions: the Pont Lesdiguières is a historic monument, Cosmocité is dedicated to science, and the Centre aquatique Flottibulle offers water activities. If you are looking for hotels for a stay in Le Pont-De-Claix, these themes can help you decide what you want your trip to revolve around. Planning also varies: the cultural programme changes with the season, rides take place on specific opening days, and you should check the latest access or opening conditions before your visit.
Culture and history
The Pont Lesdiguières is a historic monument dating from the 17th century. Its date provides a specific historical reference point. At the Histo Bus Dauphinois, you can see a 23-metre-long model of the Chemin de fer de La Mure. On opening days, rides are also available on buses and coaches dating from the 1930s to the 1990s. This offers two different types of visit: seeing the model as an exhibit and the opportunity to ride in vehicles from several decades. Rides are only available on opening days; check the dates, as they may change.
At L'Amphi, the city's cultural programme includes theatre, music, dance, circus and singing. The selection therefore covers more than one art form, while the specific offerings change seasonally. If a particular discipline or date is important to your trip, check the programme details for the relevant period. This will help you plan around the cultural offering you actually want to attend.
Science, getting there and leisure
Cosmocité is a metropolitan science centre in Le Pont-De-Claix. It has exhibition spaces, a planetarium and an immersive room; there is also a garden open to the public. When planning your visit, you can take into account both the science theme and the format you prefer. Check the latest access conditions and programme details before setting off.
You can reach Cosmocité on tram line A from Fontaine, Grenoble or Échirolles. It is a five-minute walk from the Pont-de-Claix l'Étoile stop. As transport services may change, check your journey shortly before travelling.
The Centre aquatique Flottibulle has several pools and leisure areas, and offers sports and leisure activities. A 32-metre-long water slide is another distinctive feature of the centre. You can consider the wider range of leisure facilities and the slide as separate aspects when planning, if they are important to you. Check the latest opening conditions and the slide's availability before your visit; the programme and availability may change.
