Briançon: Art & History Town
Located 1326m above sea-level, in the heart of the Southern Alps, Briancon lies where five valleys meet - Haute Durance, Guisane, Clarée, Ayes and Cerveyrette - and therefore occupies a remarkable site.
Central meeting point in the Alps, the town benefitted from economic, political and strategic development, nationally and internationally as well. Awarded by the French ministry of Culture, it is an official symbol of a rich cultural past.
