Annecy, known around the world for its stunning lake, beautiful mountainous landscapes and quaint little Old Town, is one of France’s must-see destinations. Funbooker has put together a selection of the best things to see and do in the beautiful Alpine town.
Lake Annecy is the third largest lake in France, and the city’s most famous site. It is known as “Europe’s cleanest lake”, and is a popular spot for tourists looking for a stunning swimming spot or thrill-seekers looking for a great water-sports location.
A key attraction in many of Europe’s most popular cities, Annecy is also home to a quaint little Old Town. With its cobbled streets and little alleyways packed with brasseries and ice cream parlors, it is the perfect place for a meandering stroll on a hot summer’s day.
The Passerelle du Jardin Public, as it’s officially known, is a footbridge situated at the entryway of the Canal du Vassé on the shores of Lake Annecy. It is commonly referred to as "Pont des Amours" (Bridge of Lovers) by the locals of Annecy. Connecting the Pâquier to the Jardins de l'Europe, this bridge holds historical significance as a place where couples sought solace and peace.
The stunning Château d’Annecy is a restored 12th century castle that dominates the city’s skyline. It is a must-see site, and is home to the Museum of Alpine Popular Art which houses numerous regional sculptures and paintings.
The breathtaking Palais de l’Isle is a sumptuous 12th century fortified house situated in the middle of the Thiou canal, right in the heart of Annecy. Formerly used as a prison, it is now a showcase for the architecture and heritage of the Annecy conurbation, offering a permanent tour of the area's history and heritage.
