Chapelle Sainte-Anne des Aravis, Mountain chapel at Col des Aravis, La Clusaz, France

Chapelle Sainte-Anne des Aravis stands at an elevation of 1,486 meters, featuring an inscription on its facade dedicated to the protection of travelers.

The chapel was established in 1624 by Pierre-François de Belletour, Lord of Flumet, and underwent several renovations in 1867, 1926, and 1950.

Local parishioners traditionally gather at the chapel for processions during times of hardship, particularly when praying for rainfall during dry seasons.

This religious structure, part of the Diocese of Annecy, welcomes visitors through Col des Aravis in the Haute-Savoie region.

The chapel received a complete roof renovation with traditional wooden shingles, known as tavaillons, on October 19, 1984.
