Sedan is a princely city. This former principality is dominated by its immense fortified castle. It is the work of the princes of Sedan.
It offers the possibility, by walking through its streets, to discover little-known episodes in the history of France. In addition to the heritage house and the castle, you will find beautiful green spaces and pleasant pedestrian streets.

Sedan (Land of heroic deeds)
The Ardennes massif is followed by a vast plain where the Meuse flows peacefully. This border region was at the crossroads of numerous invasions. Cities were fortified, castles became impregnable. History left a very heavy mark here. In the south, the landscape becomes softer, with a string of soothing undulations, a stark contrast to the battle that was fought there in 1870, in 1814, in 1940.
