| LES CHEMINS DE L'HISTOIRE |
|
 12 chapels restored and furnished testify to 5000 years of history. Each one is devoted to a particular period or theme to illustrate the discovery of our villages.
The idea is simple : a big key in your hand and tokens in your pocket will be your magical passport. The "Chemins
de l’Histoire" are a cultural circuit that you should do at your own pace, on foot, snowshoes or nordic skis.
Prices :
5 €. Deposit : 30 €
