Ce point d’intérêt est disponible en audio dans le circuit: Visit Chambéry, The historic capital of Savoy
You now have, much like the Maistre brothers on their pedestal, a bird’s-eye view of Arcades Street with the Elephants fountain in the background. The men depicted in the statue are two brothers born in Chambéry in the 18th century. Joseph Maistre is a politician, philosopher, magistrate, and writer. His younger brother, Xavier, will be remembered for his novel “Voyage autour de ma chambre”, meaning “Travel within my room”, written after his 42-day imprisonment in Turin.
