Groupon’s Guide To Champagne-Ardenne
Famous for the namesake sparkling wine, Champagne-Ardenne is a northeast French region consisting of four departments: Aube, Ardennes, Haute-Marne, and Marne. The region’s cultural and gastronomic heritage beckons with wine cellars and vineyards covering more than 30.000 hectares, while a cluster of historic towns and villages, medieval castles and cathedrals attracts history enthusiasts.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Gothic Cathedral of Reims and the place of kings’ coronation invites visitors to marvel at stained glass windows, both medieval and modern, as famous artists such as Marc Chagall and Brigitte Simon have left their mark on the cathedral’s original features. Modern art lovers will rejoice at the chance to admire the works of French artists from the end of the 19th century up to the ‘60s at the Museum of Modern Art in Troyes. To the west, in Bayel, tourists will have the opportunity to unfold the secrets of handmade glass-making, as the Museum of Bayel Crystal opens the door to masterpieces of hand cutting, gold plating and engraving. In the Le Mesnil Sur Oger commune of Marne department, Musée de la Vigne et du Vin offers visitors an insight into the history of champagne production, while Champagne-making equipment including a 16-tonne oak-beam grape press is exhibited for viewers.
