Finhaut

Chief town of the municipality, the village of Finhaut is originally consisted of two hamlets separated by a forest: The Cotze and The Leamon. By 1872, the forest is replaced by separated the many hotels that occupy the present village. There is also the post office, banks, grocery stores and bazaars, as well as most coffee shops.

 

LA COTZE


The Cotze occupies the bottom of Finhaut, with its center at the church square. The neighborhood has many older houses and some hotels. It ends on the road by the first hotel Giétroz Finhaut, the Federal Cross, opened in 1860.

The Cotze houses the Swiss Chalet, one hotel was built in wood in the late 19th century. It faces the Bristol, a former palace of the station. There is also the City back against the oven, the old distillery where radioactive lemonade water was bottled. This traditional factory has been partly destroyed by fire in 1906.


LE LEAMON


This is the area of the upper village. It can be reached either by road coaches using the main street, or by the old mule track that crosses the district from the Fund. The climb ends at the Hotel des Alpes. Not far away lies the former dairy now used as a distillery during the winter. The playground and the road shooting delineate the top of the village
