Why go

This explains what you will see as you move through the old town. French is the reliable starting point for signs and everyday exchanges; the French–Monégasque street names on the Rock point to a local identity distinct from the surrounding French coast. Do not assume every notice will appear in English.

Useful to know

  • Use French place names when reading signs or asking for directions, especially in Monaco-Ville.
  • Look for French–Monégasque street signs on the Rock if you want to notice the traditional language in public space.
