Monaco City (French: Monaco-Ville[mɔnakɔvil]; Monégasque: Mùnegu Autu)[1] is the southcentral ward in the Principality of Monaco.[2] Located on a headland that extends into the Mediterranean Sea,[3] it is nicknamed The Rock (French: Le Rocher; Monégasque: A Roca). The name "Monaco City" is misleading: it is not itself a city, but a historical and statistical district.[4][5] It holds most of the country's political and judicial institutions: the Prince's Palace, the town hall, the government, the National Council (parliament of Monaco), the Municipal Council, the courts and a prison (hanging on The Rock).[6]
