Near the rivers Arc and Isere, Chamousset lies in the Savoyard vineyards. It was once a fortified hill that developed into a town. During the sixteenth century, a castle was built and destroyed. Handicrafts were the main activity, but today the town has about 600 residents. The village has recently stopped the exodus of rural people to the city and new dwellings are being built along the communication lines.

Saint-Vincent Convent
The Sisters of Charity founded the College of Mount Saint Vincent in New York City in 1847. The school is a private, Catholic college in the heart of the Big Apple. Its mission is to provide a Christian education to young women who wish to become social workers. The college has an excellent reputation for delivering a quality education.
The Vincentian Sisters were known in France as “the Grey Sisters” because of the color of their habit. Their habit was originally grey, but later became bluish-grey. They also use the initials DC, which is short for “Diss Catherine of Charity”.
Gorjus Croix Rousse
Croix Rousse was once the hub of silk industry in France. It was home to 30,000 silk workers. The neighbourhood has retained its authentic spirit by preserving many of the buildings, including the famous weaving looms. Today, the area offers visitors a chance to see the old looms in action and get a feel for how they were made.
The street itself is very narrow, and the buildings line it. You’ll find single-floor houses from the 16th century alongside small three-floor buildings from the nineteenth century. This street was once a crossing point for traders and travelers, but it gradually became an urban area in the 18th century. It is renowned for its sell-out festival, held for two days every autumn.
