Classified Chimneys in Flaine

Elevation : 1600m
Flaine Forum, 74300 Flaine, Arâches-la-Frasse
Hidden in 4 of the resort's establishments are 5 majestic concrete chimneys designed by Marcel Breuer and his team.
Imposing cubic or conical masses with abstract shapes, these fireplaces are art objects in their own right and stand out like veritable concrete sculptures. The Totem Friendly Hotel & Spa is the winner, with 2 majestic fireplaces in the lounge bar area and the second in the hotel's loft. The emblematic L'Hotel le Flaine (home to the Village Club MMV le Flaine) has had its fireplace listed as a historic monument. It is ideally placed in the centre of the cosy lounge, extended by a suspended terrace, signature of its creator's audacity. Visitors to RockyPop Flaine Hôtel & Spa can also relax around a majestic Breuer fireplace. The last of the famous architect's 5 iconic fireplaces is in the UCPA Les Lindars building.

The Flaine Art Centre organises a free guided tour of the resort every Tuesday at 2pm (in winter and summer) (registration required).

Follow the director of the Art Centre through the twists and turns of Flaine, in pursuit of the history of Flaine and its little stories too...

During this visit, you'll have the chance to see the fireplace in the Totem Friendly Hôtel & Spa's common room.

For the free guided tour: please book with the Centre d'Art de Flaine before 11.30am on Tuesday.
