Despite all this name is unknown in the ancient chronicles of Evian.Fonbonne is undoubtedly the great white square tower with its houses, walls and gardens, in the Touvière of Evian that can be seen very well on the Sabaudia Theater and that sold on March 19, 1556 Marie de Duyn-Vufflens, wife of noble Vincent De Thorens-Rougement to Thomas Jacquerod, lord of Bonnevaux, bourgeois of Evian, stock of the nobles of Loys.
