Le Millefiori, Modern residential tower in Monte Carlo, Monaco
Le Millefiori is a modern residential tower in Monte Carlo containing 245 apartments spread across 37 floors, with unit types ranging from studios to large duplexes. The building features ground-level retail services, extensive underground parking facilities, and individual storage rooms for residents.
The building was constructed in 1969 by architects Jean Ginsberg and Americo La Penna on a site that previously held two residential villas. It stood as the principality's tallest structure until zoning regulations were tightened in the following decades.
The building represents Monaco's architectural evolution, demonstrating the principality's adaptation to urban density through vertical residential development.
The tower sits near the French border in a highly visible location within Monte Carlo. You can easily spot its distinctive profile from various public areas and viewpoints throughout the district.
The structure served as Monaco's tallest building until regulatory changes in 2009 shifted what could be built in the principality. This status makes it a key landmark for understanding how the skyline evolved over time.
