Bourse du Travail de Saint-Étienne, Neoclassical historic monument in central Saint-Étienne, France.
The building features a symmetric facade with a central body flanked by two wings, decorated with composite pilasters and sculptural medallions.
Built between 1901 and 1902 by architects Léon and Marcel Lamaizière, this Labor Exchange was the third established in France after Paris and Nîmes.
The motto 'Liberty, Equality, Solidarity, Justice' engraved on the facade reflects the trade union and workers' values of the early 20th century.
The building is located on Cours Victor Hugo, accessible via tramway lines T1 and T3, near Saint-Étienne-Le Clapier train station.
The medallions on the side pavilions display symbols of the General Confederation of Labor, including a Phrygian cap and a lion.
