Veuve Clicquot is one of the world's largest champagne houses. Founded in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot-Muiron, it played a key role in establishing champagne as a favorite among the European upper class and nobility. The premature death of François Clicquot in 1805 left his wife, Madame Clicquot Ponsardin, a widow at the young age of 27. Intelligent, resourceful, and energetic, she was a determined woman with the courage to face that challenge. At a time when women were excluded from business, she dared to take on the leadership of the company founded by her father-in-law, a role she carried out with passion and determination. Her creativity and quest for innovation led to several firsts in Champagne: the first known vintage champagne, the invention of the riddling table, and the first known blended rosé champagne. These three innovations revolutionized champagne production and were quickly adopted by all producers, laying the foundation for modern champagne production. Madame Clicquot transformed her name into a trademark of excellence and made it known throughout the world. Her enormous contribution earned her the nickname "the Grande Dame of Champagne." Inside, you can discover the 24 kilometers of cellars, the heritage of the house. www.veuveclicquot.com

The abbey served as the guardian of the Holy Ampulla (Sainte Ampoule) used in the coronation ceremonies of French kings, and Reims was known as Durocortorum when it served as the capital of the Roman province of Belgica.

The Saint-Remi Museum in Reims is housed in a former Benedictine abbey that was classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1991 and officially became a museum in 1978. The museum covers the period from Prehistory to the Renaissance (around 1530) and features regional archaeology collections, classical antiquities, and an extensive military history section

Inaugurated in 1996, on the occasion of the 15th centenary of the baptism of Clovis by Saint Remi and the visit of Pope John Paul II to Reims, this imposing statue offered by the Roederer champagne house was created by the Dutch artist Daphné du Barry.

Closed for renovation until 2025. The museum was founded in 1794 and its collection was enriched in the 19th and 20th centuries. In order to make the most of the legacy left by Henry Vasnier (1907), the City of Paris moved the museum to the buildings of the former Saint-Denis Abbey in 1913. An ambitious renovation project involving in-situ restructuring has been underway since 2014. While waiting for the extension, the Musée des Beaux-Arts is currently showcasing a chronological exhibition of masterpieces illustrating the major artistic movements from the 16th to the 21st century through paintings, sculptures, furniture and objets d'art. The first floor displays classical and baroque paintings from the 17th century and landscapes from the 19th century, from Corot to impressionists such as Monet and Renoir. On the ground floor, period rooms are dedicated to decorative arts.

The Jewish communities in Europe, whose centuries-old tradition is often only visible to the public through commemorative plaques or monuments, were honored - especially in these difficult times for them with a rapidly growing, openly expressed anti-Semitism - by awarding the "International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen" to the President of the Conference of European Rabbis, Chief Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt, and the Jewish communities in Europe. "In recognition of his outstanding work for peace, the self-determination of peoples and European values, for tolerance, pluralism and understanding, and in recognition of his significant commitment to interreligious and intercultural dialogue, the Board of Directors of the Society for the Award of the International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen in 2024 honors the President of the Conference of European Rabbis, Chief Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt, and together with him the Jewish communities in Europe. With this award, the Charlemagne Prize Directorate wants to send a signal that Jewish life is a natural part of Europe and that there can be no place for anti-Semitism in Europe. Jewish life is an important part of European history and present - now and in the future. (...)" (May 2024)
