- For the French academician, geographer and mathematician, see Charles Marie de La Condamine.
La Condamine is the second oldest district in Monaco, after Monaco-Ville. By broad definition it is one of the four traditional Quartiers, but more specifically it is one of the ten modern Wards of Monaco, its traditional area also including the modern Wards of Moneghetti, Les Revoires, and La Colle.
The name comes from the Middle Ages and means the cultivable land at the foot of a village or castle. Today the port of Monaco and a thriving business district are located in La Condamine. The yacht belonging to the Prince of Monaco is usually berthed in La Condamine's large harbour, the Port of Hercules.
