Stay in Aix-les-Bains to combine heritage and hydrotherapy

Would you like to explore the beautiful Savoyard region and visit its heritage while pampering you?

If Annecy is internationally known for its lake, the city has a rich and varied heritage. Prefecture of Haute-Savoie, in the Middle Ages, it was the place of residence of the counts of Geneva, then of Savoy. It has kept about twenty classified monuments to different inventories. After a passage through the castle, stop at the Palais de l’Isle and stroll in the new district of Novel. Located 20 minutes from your hotel in Aix-les-bains, you will love to stroll through the typical streets of the old town. Nicknamed the “Venice of the Alps“, its canals, fountains and romantic arcades will guarantee you a pleasant and exotic journey.

Because Savoie is not only mountains and cheese, liven up your cure in Aix-les-bains by visiting a superb abbey dating from the XIIth century. Founded in 1125 by Amédée de Lausanne, the abbey of Hautecombe was built by Cistercian monks. Fallen into disuse, it was restored in the nineteenth century and then taken over by the community of Chemin Neuf to train young people to spirituality. Normaly, only the abbey church can be visited so as not to disturb the prayer and formation of the monks. However, the gardens and the entire building are accessible once a year in September during the Heritage Days.
