Tourist Office
A Tourist Board was founded in Valloire in 1935 as soon as the first cable cars were installed.
The Tourist Office has been based in the first “Maison du Médecin” (“Doctor’s House” – Dr. Jean-Régis Edouard Magnin exercised his profession in this ‘house’ for 45 years) for 50 years now. The building was then donated to the village of Valloire in 1817 by Jean-Baptiste Grange, to be used for the practice of medicine.
