The history of Chambéry

Chambéry is the prefecture of the Savoie, set in a valley pass between the Bauges and Chartreuse massifs. Former capital of the States of Savoy, it has kept a dense historic centre, organised around the château of the dukes of Savoy, the old town and its covered walkways, the cathedral and the Elephants fountain, one of its best known monuments.

The city has spread over time by taking in former villages such as Chambéry-le-Vieux and Bissy, and by building new districts, from the Verney park to Les Hauts de Chambéry. Its position as an Alpine crossroads, between Lyon, Grenoble and the valleys of the Savoie, and the closeness of the lake of Bourget and the mountain resorts sustain a sought-after property market.

The geography of prices follows that history: the historic centre and the former villages on the heights, such as Chambéry-le-Vieux, are gaining value, while the large estates of the east, such as Le Biollay and Les Hauts de Chambéry, remain more affordable.

Who buys in Chambéry

The Chambéry market attracts first-time buyers, families, working people employed in the city or along the Alpine corridor, as well as investors and buyers drawn by the mountain setting. Demand focuses on the historic centre and its period apartments, on the residential areas of the north and east such as Chambéry-le-Vieux and Chantemerle, and on the more affordable properties of the large estates. The closeness of the lake of Bourget, the massifs and the motorway routes adds to the appeal of the city.
