The capital of France's Jura department, Lons le Saunier sits at the base of the primary plateau of a scenic feature of geography called the Jura massif. The town is approximately two hours from Geneva, in Switzerland. Natural and manmade scenery is one of the key attractions for visitors staying at hotels in Lons le Saunier. Known to the Romans as a city of salt, the town still offers the chance to enjoy the therapeutic effects of salt-water spa treatments at the historic Park des Bains. The streets are epic examples of architecture from the 17th and 18th centuries. A series of 146 historic arches lines Rue de Commerce. The clock tower is a great place to start a walk along this 'Rue des Arcades', and don't miss the house at number 24, the birthplace of revolutionary figure Rouget de Lisle. St Desire Church is built in the Romanesque style, and the Cordeliers Church houses important items from the 18th century. The N5 is the quickest route to Geneva and the nearby national park. Air and rail links are also available via Lyon, less than two hours to the north.
