Résumé anglais Village Meeting Houses in Traditional Anniviers Valley (Switzerland). This study points out the advantage of a global interpretation of rural architecture which invokes sociology and history as well as folklore, contrary to the common typological approach. The evolution of the settlement in this lateral valley of the upper-Rhone, whose inhabitants lived in total isolation until the end of the nineteenth century, reflects the history of the valley's village communities : emancipation, the golden age, fixedness, and disintegration. A dynamic and symbolic interpretation of the valley's various sites and of the diverse elements of its dwellings permits the reconstruction of the Anniviers Valley's cosmology and the identification of its principal centers.
