Faverges Useful Information
Faverges holiday rentals are located in the department of Haute-Savoie which is part of the larger region of Rhone-Alpes. Land area covers 25.86 square kilometres and holds a population of around 6,800 people.
Originally, at the end of the ice age, Lake Annecy (Lac d’Annecy) extended all the way down to Faverges. A great deal of early history has been found at the dig sites of ‘Viuz’ and ‘Thovey’, particularly from the Gallo-Roman times. The main reason for these finds was the fact that the area was an important stop along the Roman road from Turin to Geneva.
Faverges also has several of the larger factories for companies like Staubli, Bougeois and S.T. Dupont, which provide thousands of jobs in what is actually a fairly small village. But don’t worry, these factories do not spoil the fact that holiday rentals in Faverges are perfectly located for skiing, golfing and sightseeing holidays, which this part of France has in abundance.
