Roquebrune-Cap-Martin is a commune in the Alpes-Maritimes
department in southeastern France between Monaco and Menton. The name was
changed from Roquebrune. Today Roquebrune-Cap-Martin comprises several villages
and towns: St.Roman, practically a suburb of Monaco, the residential areas
of Cabbé, Bon Voyage and Serret, Roquebrune with its perched village and
château, the posh Cap Martin peninsula and the modern seaside resort of
Carnolès with its long pebble beach bordering Menton. All the area has a huge
tourism activity.
This postcard from Briggy13 (26 August 2014) Swap-bot shows three
panels of Roquebrune Village. Here is one way of
describing this village: “Roquebrune has winding narrow streets and alleys
that are filled with staircases, built completely on the flanks of a steep
mountain rising up from the blue sea. There are small windows and colourful
doors everywhere and many little stairways leading to yet other doorways.”
