La Tour-en-Maurienne

La Tour-en-Maurienne occupies the slopes and floor of the Arc valley in the Maurienne area of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The commune brings together the former communes of Hermillon, Le Châtel and Pontamafrey-Montpascal, merged in 2019; its settlements extend from the main valley to higher mountain hamlets. The Arc, a major Alpine tributary of the Isère, has long given the Maurienne an east–west route toward the Italian border. Rather than a single urban centre, this is a dispersed Savoyard locality shaped by steep relief, transport routes and the rhythms of the Alps.
