Arriving in Switzerland by car you will almost certainly pass through Martigny, as it is located along the road that leads to the Simplon and the Gran San Bernardo. The village of Martigny is located in southern Switzerland, in the canton of Valais south-east of Montreux, at the crossroads of the roads leading to the Simplon and Gran San Bernardo passes. This village is very popular in the winter for the many nearby ski resorts including Verbier. With a rich historical and cultural heritage, here is the famous Pierre Gianadda Foundation, Martigny boasts a Roman amphitheater, Roman baths, several temples and Roman houses. Martigny also boasts a 13th-century medieval castle and one of the oldest mills in French-speaking Switzerland still in business. If you are traveling with children to Switzerland do not miss the Musée et Chiens du San Bernardo and the Museum of Earth Sciences. The French holiday resort of Chamonix is accessible in an hour and a half thanks to the Mont Blanc Express while the Sankt Bernhard Express takes passengers from Martigny to Orsières.
