Abbaye de Hautecombe classified as a historical monument, is a must-see and organizes events and temporary exhibitions.

Clinging to the wild shore of Lac du Bourget, Hautecombe Abbey blends majesty and serenity. Founded in the XIIᵉ century by the Cistercians, it became the necropolis of the princes of Savoy and the last kings and queens of Italy. Its Gothic troubadour-style church surprises with its colorful frescoes, recumbent figures and stained glass windows, contrasting with the original Cistercian sobriety. The view of the lake from the forecourt and nearby pier is breathtaking. Led by the Chemin Neuf community, the abbey remains a lively place of prayer and welcome.

A faire
Un peu à l'écart , au sortir d'une belle foret, voici l'abbaye de Hauteville. Parking gratuit, bonne organisation pour pénétrer dans l'abbaye, un style gothique, et au final, les "statues" de nos princes de Savoie. L'audioguide est compris dans les 4,5 euros du prix d'entrée.visite de 2h en prenant le temps de regarder et découvrir. Ensuite on file vers le lac, et on contemple les cygnes....une bien belle journée!

Je trouve la visite à l'extérieur de l'abbaye plus intéressante que celle de l'intérieur, personnellement. Le prix de l'entrée est considérable pour le peu de bâtiments que l'on peut visiter dedans. Par contre,le cadre est magnifique et la vue sur le lac splendide.

visite très agréable, vous vous laissez guidé pendant un peu moins d'une heure avec un audioguide remarquable (et gratuit) qui vous renseigne parfaitement sur le site, son histoire, sur les rois de Savoie; étape à faire lors d'un tour de promenade autour du lac, parking gratuit et facile d'accès; de très bonnes bières à la boutique...
