Last October, Christophe Gilbert, entrepreneur in the restaurant business, took over the Mylord business. The brewery located on the Place des Arts will find the name of Saint-Jean. Name she carried for almost 100 years. While the first traces of the establishment date back to the second half of the 19th century, part of the city’s history has been written within its walls.

Dn the heart of cities, certain places mark the collective imagination, where several generations have passed to leave a fragment of their history there while the walls have not moved. In Thonon, the immutable brasserie at the corner of Place and Rue des Arts is one of those brands of the past.
When he returned to Thonon to take over the Mylord business, Christophe Gilbert, originally from Chablais, was far from imagining that a heritage treasure was hidden behind the reddish frames of the storefront. But by digging through the municipal archives, unearthing old postcards and meeting the former boss, more than a century of history has resurfaced.
