During construction work, remains of a Roman house (domus) were discovered three meters below ground, including pilasters and a road leading toward what is now the Banque de France. The building's reconstruction was made possible after the Duke of Guise repaid a debt of 22k livres to the city.

The Reims City Hall has served as the seat of municipal government since 1499 and features a square design with four wings surrounding a central courtyard. Originally built between 1627-1636 by city architect Jean Bonhomme, the building was completely destroyed by fire during World War I in 1917 and subsequently reconstructed, with President Gaston Doumergue inaugurating the rebuilt structure in 1928. The south-facing facade is crowned by an octagonal bell tower and features an equestrian statue of Louis XIII trampling two prisoners.

Beautiful cycle path along the water.
