Since 1978, the Pierre Gianadda Foundation has been attracting an ever-increasing stream of visitors. Its Gallic-Roman temple, its oldtimer museum and, first and foremost, its choice art exhibitions, featuring world-renowned artists, are a must for every art lover. Five good reasons to visit Martigny: it is a Gallic-Roman town, the Pierre Gianadda Foundation and its art gallery enjoy a great international reputation, gastronomy is yet another strong point of the town, Martigny is also a favorite site for congresses and fairs, and here, in the heart of the Alps, a great many different sports can be practiced all year long!
Celtic tribes, the Romans and Napoleon's troupes all felt at home in Martigny. These different people left their mark on the town and various archeological sites offer a fascinating glimpse of the early settlements. In addition to its historic dimension, Martigny is also a town of the arts.
