The Belleydoux cheese dairy chalet

Built in 1908, this impressive and unique building was paid for with funds from the sale of municipal woods. At the time, the municipality justified the cost of works by “[...] the urgent need to provide farmers with a chalet equipped with the latest improvements in the cheese dairy industry to ensure profitable returns for milk producers”. Between 1930 and 1940, it gathered over forty members. The production of gruyere cheese required that a significant number of producers come together. This chalet was certainly built at the expense of much smaller cheese dairies, which were not as easily accessed and not as well equipped.
