Beffroi de Montrouge

The Beffroi de Montrouge stands out for its sharp, geometric concrete facade and the massive, rectangular tower that looms over the town square. Completed in the early nineteen-thirties, this administrative center was the ambitious project of Mayor Jules Ferry, who wanted a structure that projected modern efficiency. The architect Henri Decaux designed it with clean lines and functional spaces to house the town's municipal offices. Inside the main hall, a mural by Henri Marret depicts a sprawling, idealized map of the local landscape.
