Laço dos cordões Montvernier em VAE

Consecrated in 1776, this Baroque church is dedicated to two saints invoked for healing. Numerous liturgical and decorative objects are listed as historic monuments.While its bulbous steeple would pass for almost commonplace in the Haute-Savoie or Beaufortain regions, this type of roofing is much rarer in our Maurienne valley. Its altarpiece (with tabernacle), the work of the Gilardi brothers, deserves your attention.

Le Châtel stretches from Hermillon at an altitude of 500 metres to the summit of the Grand Coin (2730 metres).The presence of an ancient Roman road explains why this plateau has long been occupied and dotted with ancient buildings. The cradle of the House of Savoy, the Tour Bérold de Saxe, whose origin remains a mystery, has dominated the Maurienne valley for over 1000 years. Deputy Mayor: Mireille FRUMILLON

Situated on a plateau 300 meters above the Maurienne valley, Montvernier's three hamlets enjoy breathtaking views of the valley, the Aiguilles d'Arves and the Grand Coin massif.To reach the village, one of the roads best known to cyclists as the "Lacets de Montvernier" winds its way through eighteen tight, winding bends supported by high stone walls. It's a fast-paced sequence for a picturesque, vertiginous descent! Mayor: Daniel CROSAZ
