Duingt (French pronunciation: [dwɛ̃]; Arpitan: Douin) is a commune in the Haute-Savoie department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region in south-eastern France.

The history of the place starts in the Bronze Age (from 1400 to 700 BC) where the first habitats for human settlements were evolved. It was in this epoch where the hallmark of Duingt, the island called the island of Roselet, has been evolved from the lake. The first prehistoric objects such as pieces made of ceramic, bracelets and rings which are exhibited at the museum of Annecy have been found in 1856. Further pieces which relate to prehistoric settlement have been exposed in 1860.[3]
