Alpine museum recounting the hard and exhilarating lives of the inhabitants of the Chamonix valley, and organizing events and workshops.

Housed in the carefully renovated former Chamonix Palace, the Musée Alpin offers a captivating journey through the difficult and fascinating history of the inhabitants of the Chamonix valley. From the beginnings of expeditions to the "glaciers of Savoy" to the establishment of a winter sports resort, the journey has been a long one, marked by the adaptation of the inhabitants as they made the transition from traditional livestock farming to tourism. During the high season, activities and workshops are offered to delight families and enrich the museum experience.

蠻漂亮的外觀
但因為在裝修沒辦法入場
Visited in april 2025
Most of the first floor of this building (the end near the river) has been under renovation for two years (based on the giant sign out front near the river) & the place above the construction site on the second floor is rented as an Airbnb. The surrounding renovation isn't disclosed in the rental. So the building security isn't standard, among other things, and there are likely additional safety issues since the floor is held up by temporary steel supports.

It's beautiful architecturally and really central in Chamonix and has been going on for years, so even people who live near Les Grands Montets know about this renovation, but apparently the real estate agents just a few blocks away are oblivious.

Un peu petit mais..
Un peu petit mais il y a quelque chose d'intéressant. J'ai aimé les outils d'alpinisme exposés pour comprendre l'évolution des matériaux. L'affichage des peintures et des photos de la mar de glace n'est pas mal non plus. J'ai aimé les outils d'alpinisme exposés pour comprendre l'évolution des matériaux.
