Église Notre-Dame-de-Liesse d'Annecy, Neoclassical church in Vieille Ville, Annecy, France

The church displays a symmetrical stone facade with Roman architectural elements, a central dome, and large rose windows illuminating the interior space.

Founded in the 14th century by the Counts of Geneva, the church underwent reconstruction in 1846 after its choir was demolished during the French Revolution.

This religious building maintains its role as a central gathering point for the Catholic community, continuing centuries-old traditions in the heart of Annecy.

The church opens daily for visits, with guided tours available throughout the year, although the building remains inaccessible to wheelchair users.

The bell tower houses the Salésienne, a five-ton bell created by the renowned Paccard Foundry in 1878, which rings across the old town.

Annecy and its lake: the most beautiful places to see between town and mountains

Annecy attracts equally with its lake and its preserved Alpine village ambiance. Between nature, gastronomy, and heritage, the town stretches between the mountains and the clear water of the lake, lined with canals and colorful facades. Strolling along the Thiou, climbing up to the castle, or taking boat trips to Talloires and Veyrier are popular activities. The surroundings are filled with easily accessible peaks, scenic trails, and starred restaurants. Each season offers a reason to return, whether for markets, beaches, or the first snow on the Aravis.
