Have you ever explored the history of the architectural development of Flaine?
Some quick facts:
Flaine was designed by architect Marcel Breuer
The architecture is based on the principles of shadow and light.
Flaine was created by Eric and Sylvie Boissonnas in the 1960s
The original Flaine was built between 1960 to 1976
Flaine has since expanded with additions such as Hameau, Helios, and more recently Alhena.
Flaine has been awarded the Heritage of the 20th Century classification by the French Ministry of Culture
The image lists the dates of the original planned buildings in Flaine - you can see that Bellatrix was built in 1973.
This really is a resort that combines wonderful snow and skiing with historic architecture and art.
Not visited Flaine before?
Maybe the 2026/27 deason is the year to do so!
