The name of Corbel come from the site itself, perched, and which access can be done by road cantilevered. Geologically astride the Jura and the Alps, the town consists of two distinct units: the valley of Gringalet comprising the administrative and seven hamlets and the plateau also suspended above the valley of Chartreuse. Despite the abundance of rainfall and its green setting, the town of Corbel is poor in water, because it is water that runs off quickly to go feed the Guiers Vif.
Corbel is located above the town of Saint-Pierre d'Entremont.
SIGHTSEEING
Corbel parish church: the present building, dedicated to St John the Baptist, dates from the second half of the 19th century. The reconstruction was financed in part by the Carthusians. According to reports the remains of a vaulted chapel, 14th century, would be kept under the bell tower. In the 90's, the windows have been replaced by the famous Arcabas. The church is open daily to the public.
The fountains of Corbel: before the development of the municipal water system, made late, the water supply was through the communal fountains, located in each hamlet. Not covered, they are usually installed near the bread oven.
We discover all its fountains and ovens with a route marked out "the path of fountains Corbel": 1:45, departure from the church of Corbel.
