Villa des Bijoux is a house in the hills of Saint-Jeannet which was used as the notorious jewel thief John Robie's (played by Cary Grant) villa in Hitchcock's classic 1955 film To Catch a Thief. The property was featured prominently in the beginning of the movie, when Robie evades the police after they come to seize him for questioning after the latest string of jewel thefts. The movie ends with Robie and Frances Stevens (played by Grace Kelly) together on the villa's terrace.

The villa flagged in the picture is not the correct one. It is close to this one though. It can be found with a little web searching homework.

Look up 328 Route De St. Jeannet on Google Earth, then check out Street Veiw & you have found the house.
