Why Visit Chambery?

As the ‘crossroads of the Alps’ since the 11th century, regional capital and home to the powerful Dukes of Savoie, Chambéry’s natural setting is hard to beat. With the peaks of the Alps visible throughout the city and the largest lake in France, Lac du Bourget, as its northern border, this is one beautiful place. Mysteriously left off the main sightseeing trail, its historic streets are refreshingly tourist-free, making this one of the best-kept secrets in France.
Highlights of Chambéry include savouring Savoyard cuisine from a bistro in the old town square, exploring boutiques along narrow cobbled streets and wandering through the gardens and galleries of the medieval Palace of the Dukes of Savoy. Those interested in history will want to visit the country house of the philosopher and writer Jean-Jacques Rousseau, now the Museum of Charmettes, while art lovers should head to the Fine Arts Museum where French and Italian Renaissance works are showcased.
