Sion
Ruelle Garbaccio

You'll only pass through this alleyway if you deviate from the usual tourist itineraries. It bears witness to the close links forged over the centuries between the Valais and Italy, as it is named after Jean-Baptiste Garbaccia (1790-1865), a Piedmontese who settled in Sion as a master mason in the early 19th century and made numerous donations to the city's poor and to charitable institutions. This generous man also bequeathed various buildings to the Municipality, including an imposing building (now demolished) at the bottom of this lane.
