La Trinité (10,276 inhabitants in 2021; 1,490 ha) is a commune in the Alpes-Maritimes department.
A former hamlet of the commune of Èze from which it was detached in 1818, first called La Trinité-Victor in honor of Victor-Emmanuel I, King of Sardinia, before simply becoming La Trinité in 1951, the commune concentrated the development of its urbanization in the plain bordering the river Paillon de Nice, located to the west of the town with agricultural activities.
La Trinité has a neo-classical style church (which would be a copy of
the Gran Madre di Dio church in Turin), a fountain dated 1654, quiet
squares, a few colorful facades repainted in dapper colors, and even
ruins of a medieval castle.
The sanctuary of Notre-Dame de Laghet, which is reached by a small
road through the olive trees, is a monastery which was built in the
17th century, following the reported appearance of miracles in this
place. A “miraculous” reputation that only grew, until it became today
the main center of pilgrimage in eastern Provence and northern Italy.
With the impressive development of the Nice metropolitan area, La
Trinité became a working-class, industrial suburb of Nice, with a
habitat combining the traditional and the modern.
