St. Andrew’s Collegiate Church

777
This church (1228), built as the chapel of the Dauphins of Viennois, anchors Grenoble’s historic core. Its Lombard-Gothic spire rises before the Belledonne range, uniting dynastic memory with alpine setting. A civic landmark, it embodies both the city’s medieval power and its enduring identity as gateway to the Alps.
