Bonneville, Administrative center in Haute-Savoie, France

The town extends along the north bank of the Arve River, surrounded by the Voralpen mountains and situated between Geneva and Chamonix Mont-Blanc.

Count Pierre II of Savoy established the town of Tucinge in 1262, which Beatrice of Faucigny later renamed to Bonneville and granted a charter in 1289.

The town maintains regular markets on Tuesdays and Fridays, where local producers gather to sell regional products from the Haute-Savoie department.

The railway station connects travelers to La Roche-sur-Foron and Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, while the A40 motorway provides direct access to Geneva and Chamonix.

The municipality sits at the intersection of two distinct valley types: a wide, fertile plain to the west and a glacial formation to the east.
