Beneyton tells the story of Saint-Étienne
Claude Beneyton (1698-1772), a master mason from Saint-Etienne, wrote a chronicle in the 18th century describing the town of Saint-Etienne in his day. His incisive text, punctuated with anecdotes that are sometimes truculent, reveals the mentality of the town's inhabitants at the end of the Ancien Régime. Embark on a journey through 18th-century Saint-Étienne as you follow Claude Beneyton, a colourful guide, through his stories and descriptions... A tour offered by the Saint-Étienne municipal media libraries.
