On Grand’Place, where you’ll discover:
Traditional Christmas
From 3 to 31 December, artisans set up in traditional wooden chalets will be selling gift items (candles, original lamps, jewellery, etc.) but also delicious food produce (cougnoles (bread of Jesus), chocolate products, gingerbread, etc.) and snacks (tartiflette (potatoes baked with bacon, cheese and cream), raclette (melted cheese), etc.) to share with family and friends!
