Hiring a car at Saint-Étienne

The city of Saint Etienne developed from a small, 13th-century community that grew up around a church dedicated to the eponymous saint. By the late 16th century, the area had become a centre for arms manufacture. It also hosted a large market. During the 17th century, Saint Etienne would become renowned for the manufacture of ribbons and elaborate edgings for material, including tassels and pom-poms. Today, the modern city is home to the University of Jean Monnet and the central railway station has high-speed links to Paris and Lyon. There are four museums in the city, including a modern art museum and one dedicated to the mining industry. There is also a planetarium. Saint Etienne is close to the Pilat Regional National Park. Hiring a car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car puts the park, a protected area, within easy driving distance. The park is a popular spot for hikers and for mountain biking. Enterprise is based at 17, Impasse du General Booth 42100, and within a mile and a half of both Chateaucreux and Gare SNCF railway stations.
