Map of Treichville, Abidjan, The Ivory Coast

Treichville is known as one of the most lively suburbs of Abidjan, especially around the Crossroad France-Amérique. The streets in Treichville do not have names but are numbered from 1 to 47. The commune is served by a railway station belonging to the RAN. The railway offers a passenger service to Ouagadougou, in Burkina Faso, which takes around 30 hours.

The Autonomous Port of Abidjan is located in Treichville.

Treichville's name comes from Marcel Treich-Laplène (1860–1890), who was a French resident in Ivory Coast. Its current mayor, first elected at the municipal election in March 2001, is François Amichia, former minister of tourism.

In March and April 2011, Treichville was caught up in the 2010–2011 Ivorian crisis and many people there were killed.
