Visit to a traditional valley house
1 / 3
Sun, July 13th, 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
La Chapelle-d'Abondance
Description
In an 18th-century farmhouse, discover the traditional habitat of the Abondance valley.
The Abondance Valley has more than 240 traditional houses worthy of historic interest, built between 1568 and 1949. Although many differences exist between them, they all had the same function: to shelter the men, the animals and the provisions for the feed during the long winter months.
Whilst today many of these farms have been adapted to meet the current lifestyle, some remain generally in their original state.
We invite you to discover one of them.
