What to do and see in Annecy, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes: The Best Museums
Romance is the lifeblood of Annecy, a town in the Rhone-Alpes region of southeast France that’s replete with castles and cathedrals and softly curving architecture. Stroll hand in hand with your paramour across Pont des Amours (the lover’s bridge) before taking in the Imperial Palace and the baroque Cathedral of Saint-Pierre. A walk down the Rue Royale will be rewarded with prime shopping, dining and people-watching, especially at the fountain of Saint Jean.

Worth a visit inside although it can seem that your visit will be short. The Palais expands with old cells and a small courtyard at its heart (you cannot work out where it is from outside - hence the reference to the 'Tardis'). It does suffer from the French habit of putting exhibitions about the development of the modern city and its economy but has enough of the old school charm to survive an often repetitious review of the architectural development of Annecy.

A 12th-century tower offers spectacular views of the Alps. A museum within the complex has a collection of Alpine-related furnishings and fine artwork.

Interesting castle doubled up as a museum. Entrance fee is just 5.50 euro. I think it’s a really good price since you have a gorgeous panoramic views from the castle and also there are a few expo that’s very educational. I like the effort they made it really family friendly by adding some small kids corner to keep everyone entertained while learning about the exhibitions around the area. You learn everything from the way of life in the past, freshwater fishes of Annecy region, amazing centuries old paintings, and more. Definitely worth the time to stop by while you’re in Annecy.
