Everything here tells a story about the past.<\/h2>\n

The Viuz Archeology Museum includes three rooms with a considerable number of artifacts on display from local digs and excavations.<\/p>\n

These relics range from common to extremely sophisticated, providing a glimpse into the lives of the people who have lived in the area (Sources du Lac d’Annecy) since Prehistory.<\/p>\n

They polished-stone axes, bronze and amber ornaments, jewelry, coins, pottery, tools, cauldrons bear witness to their presence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

This extraordinary collection is unique to the area (Savoie).<\/h2>\n

The nearby Saint Jean Baptiste (John the Baptist) Church was last restored in the 19th century. The church\u2019s 12th century Roman choir represents what remains of a Gallo-Roman building and three other churches from the 7th, 9th (around 800), and 11th centuries (around the year 1000).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Great idea! <\/h2>\n \n

In addition to feeling more cultured and educated than when you stepped inside, the historic building\u2019s thick walls keep temperatures cool inside the museum. A guided tour offers the chance to escape from the summer heat.<\/p>\n

Bring your kids with you, they are more than welcome!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Hidden behind the church, once you find it, marvel at one astonishing artifact after another: from the secluded gardens, to the entrance, to the rooms filled with history, and of course the guides ready to take you on a tour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2782,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"activity_type":[538],"period":[],"with":[],"in-mode":[],"class_list":["post-3494","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-non-classifiee","activity_type-insolite-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3494","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3494"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3494\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13639,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3494\/revisions\/13639"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2782"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3494"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3494"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3494"},{"taxonomy":"activity_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activity_type?post=3494"},{"taxonomy":"period","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/period?post=3494"},{"taxonomy":"with","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/with?post=3494"},{"taxonomy":"in-mode","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sources-lac-annecy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/in-mode?post=3494"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
