Cell towers in Mende (Lozère)

Antennas are listed at Aérodrome de Mende-Brenou, Croix du Mont Mimat, Cité du Devezou, 15 Rue de la Draine, 48 avenue du 11 Novembre and 8 rue de Fontanilles.

ANFR has approved one new site that is not live yet, plus additions on 2 existing masts. New: SFR (4G and 5G) at 14 B Rue des Carrieres. 1 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitter is listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Orange on 6 of its 7 masts and Free Mobile on all 3 masts. 5G is on 88% of masts here, against 61% across Lozère towns with five or more masts.

The highest support stands 30 m at 8 rue de Fontanilles (building). The median is 20 m, slightly below the Lozère median of 28 m.

Systems from 1998 are still on the register. Local 5G started with Free Mobile in December 2020; SFR followed in December 2021, Bouygues Telecom followed in December 2021. 2022 was the busiest year, with 13 new systems, most of them 5G.

Only one mast carries all four networks; 5 supports carry only Orange.

Nearby, Florac (23 km to the south) has less 5G (50%).

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 1.9 km, to the north-east of the centre.

4 pylons and 4 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.
