Despre activitate
Discover the hidden paradox of Annecy. Beyond the picturesque canals and alpine charm lies a fierce, centuries-old battleground for absolute control. This is the story of how a rugged military stronghold of the Dukes of Savoy transformed into the 'Rome of the Alps'—a sophisticated instrument of the Catholic Counter-Reformation. Unravel the brilliant, sometimes ruthless strategies of saints and lords who fought not with swords, but with architecture, education, and the human soul.
A 3.3 km self-guided tour with 6 stops over 103 min, Ideal for travelers interested in Power, Protest & Civic Spaces and History & Memory, Immersively told in a podcast style by experts and locals, Matching audio content, AI guide and navigation through the app.
