Bourg-St-Pierre

Bourg-St-Pierre

The village of Bourg-St-Pierre is bursting with history and charm, from its ancient buildings to its newly restored mill and the legacies left by former travellers over many centuries. History and legend sit side by side within its walls, recalling the bygone eras of Hannibal, the troops of the Roman Empire, those of Napoleon, the passage of millions of pilgrims, travellers, traders – all these have travelled the St. Bernard’s Pass. The village today retains these fragments of history and continues to extend a warm welcome to all its visitors.
