Cell towers in Autun (Saône-et-Loire)

Masts stand at La Coiffe au Diable, boulevard de l'Industrie, Saint Pantaleon, Route de la Foret de Planoise, Place du Champ de Mars and 4 Boulevard Xavier Pauchard.

The tallest structure is a 50 m pylon at Route de la Foret de Planoise. The median height of measured supports is 33 m.

2 masts belong to the commune itself and 3 to Totem; the rest sit mainly on private buildings.

Systems from 1998 are still on the register. Free Mobile opened 5G here in December 2020; SFR followed in August 2021, Bouygues Telecom followed in September 2021. 2022 was the busiest year, with 20 new systems, most of them 4G.

Approved additions not yet in service are pending on one existing mast, for example Bouygues Telecom (4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz) at Montagne St-Sébastien and SFR (4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz) at Montagne St-Sébastien. 6 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Orange on all 5 masts, Free Mobile on 4 of its 5 masts, Bouygues Telecom on 2 of its 5 masts and SFR on 2 of its 5 masts.

Epinac lies 17 km to the east and has only 6 masts.

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 4 km, to the south-east of the centre.

Only one mast carries all four networks; 3 supports carry only Orange.

Among the 19 Saône-et-Loire towns with at least five masts, Autun ranks 4th by mast count.

13,172 residents over 62 km²: supports are mostly pylons, not rooftops. It is part of the CC du Grand Autunois Morvan intercommunal grouping.

8 pylons and 3 buildings carry the commune's antennas.

Figures above cover installations declared to ANFR as in service or technically operational, as of October 2026; approved projects are not counted.
