The Hôtel de Ville de Chambéry stands as a proud symbol of the city's integration into France following the annexation of Savoy. Built between 1855 and 1862, this neoclassical building features a grand façade with a central clock tower, arched windows, and ornate stonework. Visitors can admire the exterior from the bustling Place de l'Hôtel de Ville, which hosts a lively market on weekends. Inside, the marble staircase and council chambers reflect the civic pride of the era. The building is still used for municipal functions, so public access is limited to certain areas, but the surrounding square offers a perfect spot to soak in the local atmosphere.
