"T'es où?"

Exhibition on the origin of place names in Ormonts

July 2022 - January 2024

Mdo-2022_Affiche-A3_FINALE-light-scaled_
“T'es où ?” Exhibition on the origin of place names in Ormonts.

Whatever the location, the choice of place names is not a coincidence. The “T'es où” exhibition was an opportunity to discover, through stories, legends, recordings and various didactic means, the origin of these names so often encountered.

​

Find the essence of this exhibition in the booklet:

"T'ES OÙ?" A SMALL GLOSSARY OF ORMONTS PLACE NAMES".

This exhibition was intended to be fun with, among other things, with puzzles representing the territories of the two communes of Ormont-Dessus and Ormont-Dessous as they appear on the topographic map at 1:25,000.

Find the glossary as well as the puzzles in our store. Can be shopped for yourself or a gift for your loved ones.
