Sister Cities (Jumelage) with Vienne

Special Diplomatic Tour with the
Greenwich Choral Society

July 2008


The signature ceremony and festivities was held in Vienne on
March 9th, 2007. A special trip is planned for the summer
of 2008(see below).
Day plans for Greenwich visitors include a tour of the 2500 year old city, and a visit to the famed vineyards of Côte Rotie and Condrieu;

Also be sure to visit the renowned museum of Gallo-Roman archeology across the Rhône river.

Members of the Alliance Française of Greenwich, friends, francophones and francophiles: never in the past 25 years has such an occasion presented itself to citizens
of our town to celebrate French/American friendship, by acts, not words, in pomp and circumstance and with Roman splendor as the icing on the cake!
