Agenda

Let us tell you about the thousand-year-old history of Tignes, from the peddler to the skier, from the mountain pastures to the villages.
The church of Saint Jacques, rebuilt exactly as it was when the dam was built, will give you an insight into the village's rich history.

At the heart of this church, more than a journey back in time, it's an invitation to delve into the mysteries of technique and know-how. Gilding and pigments will hold no secrets for you!

Follow your guide for a stroll through the village, centuries, traditions. Then discover the secrets of a chapel with extraordinary decorations. Then learn the know-how of Baroque craftsmen in the church.

Stone, wood, earth... Observe your surroundings, get to know the ingenuity of the mountain people and take to the game to understand the 1001 ways to live at altitude. A fun workshop for children (8-12 years) to do with the family ! As part of the Fête du Rocher.

From the 1930s onwards, winter sports developed and the mountains were transformed.
Architects, town planners and residents invented a new way of living at 2000 meters altitude. A real challenge!

Become a hydro-electrical engineer and create your own layout by placing dam, hydroelectric power station or forced pipes on models. Framed by a guide of the Pays d'Art et d'Histoire.
A workshop for the whole family.

Follow your guide and learn about local agricultural traditions and links with neighbouring Italy. In magnificent panoramas, savour a refined selection of Savoyard and Italian products, carefully staged to awaken your taste buds.
