THE AUBE EN CHAMPAGNE:
A SERENADE OF PLEASURES
Just a hop from London by train, close to Burgundy and only one and a half hour
away from Paris, you will find the charming and authentic French way of life in a true
paradise : AUBE EN CHAMPAGNE.
In Troyes, strolling through its beautiful cobbled streets, bordered by well restored
half timbered houses, you will be taken back to the Middle Ages.
The Champagne Route meanders through the vineyard. You will be surprised by
the wonderful panoramas of the Côte des Bar, also called the “horn of plenty”, the
picturesque villages and their beautiful winegrower houses.
In the Great Lakes region, in the heart of the Régional Natural Parc of Foret
d’Orient, you will discover a unique patrimony of half timbered churches.
The Nogentais, with its peaceful valleys invites to escapism.
In the Pays d’Othe – Chaourçois, will delight the lovers of gastronomy.
But sh!
The Aube en Champagne has a lot of other surprises to reveal…

TROYES - A MEDIEVAL JEWEL
First of all, a map in your hands, you will discover that history
gave a strange – and very symbolic - shape to the town: a champagne
cork shape. This extraordinary figure has been given to Troyes by the
former fortifications that surrounded the town.
Troyes is a splendid medieval town, with its cobbled narrow streets
bordered by beautiful half timbered houses. Strolling in the town centre will
take you in an incredible travel into times. You will be taken back to the
Champagne fairs era, among the street stalls and the town halls.
Either they are arts museums (like Modern Art Museum or Saint
Loup Museum) or historical museums (like Tool Museum, Apothecary of
Hôtel-Dieu-Le-Comte, or textile museum), the museums of Troyes are
like the town: between tradition and modernity.
"What strikes you when you go to Troyes? ... Bells are ringing
everywhere!", was the popular saying, because of the number of
churches, convents, abbeys and other religious buildings that once
dotted the city. Today, Troyes gathers 9 classified churches and a
cathedral. All churches are different but they all hold master pieces in
their statues and stained glass windows.
But Troyes is not only a beautiful historical town. It’s a dynamic town with an
important textile tradition. A lot of great brands were born in Troyes
(Lacoste…). Today, the most important great brands of fashion have a
boutique in the factory outlet centre. Each year, more than two
million visitors come to Troyes to take advantages of the discounts
proposed by the brands (-30% to -50% on stock in relation to
traditional stores).
