Saint-André-de-la-Roche (in French pronounced as /sɛ̃.t‿ɑ̃dʁe də la ʁɔʃ/; Occitan (post 1500);: Sant Andrieu de la Ròca; Italian: Sant'Andrea di Nizza) is a commune in the Alpes-Maritimes department in southeastern France.

Until the 50s, in this small city there was a mountain with the shape of a shape-pyramid, similar to ancient pyramids from old civilizations. The pyramid was demolished 70 years ago to build a car-road.[2]
