    Hiking

    In the picturesque village of Hautvillers, known as the birthplace of Champagne, you'll find this beautifully preserved old hand pump. Once used to pump water or extinguish fires, it's now filled with flowers and a charming piece of village history.

    The sturdy wooden wheels and metal tank bear witness to the craftsmanship of yesteryear. The name Hautvillers proudly adorns the side – a nod to the rich tradition and heritage of this wine-growing village.

    💡 Fun fact: Hautvillers was also home to Dom Pérignon, the monk who, according to legend, "invented" Champagne.
