About Champorcher
The capital Champorcher Castle or Chateau, is a town of feudal origin and is set around the local lords' castle, destroyed in 1212, which today is visible only a crenellated tower. On the ruins of the castle, around 1400, it was built the church of St. Nicholas, in which houses valuable wooden altars elaborately adorned in gold. Near the church is a small panoramic viewpoint overlooking the waterfalls that the river forms when flowing into the horrible Ayasse below.
In the last century the valley was a favorite haunt of King Vittorio Emanuele II, which in Dondena owned a royal hunting reserve.
At Champorcher, you can watch the production of hemp fabric by hand using a wooden frame; sheets, towels, tablecloths, bags, finished with delicate embroidery and hand-made rims (the Ecomuseum of hemp can be visited in the center of the village of Chardonney.
