Originally built by Sardinian architects, the district exudes a distinct bohemian charm. Stroll through its quaint streets lined with artisan workshops, independent boutiques, and stylish cafés, where creativity is always in the air. Carouge is also a hub for contemporary art, with numerous galleries, design studios, and cultural events throughout the year. Whether you’re shopping for handmade jewelry, sipping coffee at a terrace, or browsing local art, Carouge invites you to slow down and soak in its vibrant spirit.
