Nestled in Menton’s sub-tropical climate, La Citronneraie is a popular cultural heritage estate. It is situated at a height of 120 metres on the hillside of “Annonciade”. It has been laid out in a south-east direction to ensure maximum exposure to the morning sun. The estate has exotic orchards of golden hued citrus fruits in addition to some tropical and sub-tropical vegetation.

Labelled as “Remarkable Garden”, it is home to ‘Citron de Menton’ variety of lemon which is considered the best amongst the Citrus family. The origin of the estate dates back to the 16th and 17th century. The stone walls, promenades and the steps are built in Mentonnaise style covering an area of 25,000 square metres and houses about 450 citrus trees.
