Gay Saunas in France

France leads this overview: 42 houses, more than any other country. More remarkable than the number is their distribution — they are located in 33 different cities, and Paris has just four.

This makes France the opposite of the countries where everything gathers in the capital. Marseille has three houses, Montpellier, Rouen and Lille two each, followed by a long line of cities with exactly one address. So if you travel through France, you will find something almost everywhere, but you have to expect that it is exactly one house.

For planning, this means that the journey between two houses is regularly further than the search within a city. Five other addresses are now permanently closed.

France is also ahead in terms of cruising addresses with 19. Gay hotels, on the other hand, have only two — the three categories are further apart here than in any other European country.
