Chanaz – Savoy's Little Venice

Highlight • Settlement

Chanaz is a historic and atypical village on the banks of the Rhône where many craftsmen have created their workshops and shops, making the place very lively.

Activities are also organized throughout the year within the municipality. There is a very interesting Gallo-Roman museum in Chanaz. For visits, consult the following site: musee-gallomain-chanaz.fr
