Presentation
New: Monumental installation of the Olympic rings in Chamrousse, the 1968 Winter Olympics site in Grenoble, located in Chamrousse 1650 - Recoin.
In February 1968, the eyes of the entire world were fixed on our slopes. Jean-Claude Killy won three gold medals, and Marielle Goitschel triumphed in the slalom... It was here, in Chamrousse, that one of the most memorable chapters of the Grenoble Winter Olympics was written.
That Olympic spirit has never left us. To honor this exceptional legacy, the resort took another symbolic step forward on July 2, 2026, with the installation of a “spectacular” display featuring the Olympic rings at the entrance to Le Recoin (Chamrousse 1650).
This is a major first step that heralds an even larger project: the upcoming opening of the 1968 Winter Olympic Games Exhibition Space in the former meteorological building at La Croix de Chamrousse (2,253 m above sea level).
More than just a monument, these rings serve as a reminder that Chamrousse’s history is being written in the present, as it continues to embody the values of sports, pushing boundaries, and passing on traditions.
