The Vau district ( le Quartier de Vau) : located in the valley, a stream “le Saint Vincent” fed a mill, a forge and a blast furnace.
The Viseney district: in the middle of the village, takes its name from Visemal, lord of the Frontenay stronghold in the 16th century.
The Quartier de la Ville: located to the north, it was inhabited by bourgeois, judicial officers and merchants. The houses are larger and bear witness to a certain form of town planning and the importance of the district in feudal times. The Gîte du bon Pays (lodging of the good country) is located in this district.
Frontenay belongs to the Revermont region, formerly called “Le Bon Pays” which characterizes the Jura vineyards.
