Colombes - La Stade

Colombes is a Paris suburb, NW of the city center.

I stayed in this town without realising it was the former Olympic Village from 1924.

Colombes is more known as a grey industrial area with the Kléber en Hispano-Suiza factories.

Nowadays some of the oldest houses are being replaced by modern ones.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Quick highway access
  • Cons:Dated houses with lack of maintenance
  • In a nutshell:Industrial/Olympic history NW of Paris City Center
