Architectural stroll
Discover Chamonix's architectural variety.
Chamonix is an unusual city, and the great interest of its town center lies in its highly original and varied architecture, which is neither that of a village nor that of a large town. What remains of the Middle Ages? Why are there no wooden buildings left in the city center? How did people build in the past?
Why do we speak of neoclassical, Art Nouveau or Art Deco styles in Chamonix?
This tour will take you on a journey of discovery of the diversity of buildings that line its streets and alleys.
I invite you to take an observational stroll that will help you understand the successive phases of Chamonix's architectural history.
Well, actually! A whole evolution that I invite you to explore together!
Meet at 2pm in front of the Chamonix Tourist Office.
