 In
the heart of Savoy, Chambery offers to its visitors a very important
conservation area vividly highlighted by the houses in the old
streets and by its listed historical buildings. Dominated by the
castle of the Dukes of Savoy, the old town of Chambery is one of the
most remarkable old neighbourhoods in France. Chambéry has
prestigious buildings such as the Charles Dullin theatre, four
museums, Sciences and Techniques Gallery, one of the biggest chimes
in Europe, and in contemporary architecture the Andre Malraux
cultural centre, the Jean Jacques Rousseau Médiathèque and the
Manège Congress Centre. All this heritage is enhanced by a
floodlighting programme which was awarded a first national prize of
the Cities of Light by the Academy of Streets Performance |
