Sallanches, Administrative center in Haute-Savoie, France
Sallanches spreads across a glacial plain at 558 meters elevation, surrounded by the Aravis Range, Mont Blanc massif, and Faucigny massif mountains.
The town underwent major reconstruction after the 1840 fire, leading to a new layout designed by engineer François Justin for improved urban development.
The 17th-century Collégiale Saint Jacques, now classified as a Monument Historique, stands as a central architectural element with 19th-century decorative elements.
The Saturday market brings together local merchants and farmers, while the A40 motorway and railway station provide connections to nearby Alpine destinations.
The Cascade d'Arpenaz, classified in 1991, forms a natural landmark visible from multiple vantage points along the regional transportation routes.
