In the heart of the village of Vic-sur-Aisne, surrounded by a leafy park and overlooking the Aisne valley, lies the imposing Château de Vic-sur-Aisne. What today appears to be an elegant country house, bears in its walls the traces of a turbulent past. Originally built on the foundations of a medieval castrum, the estate grew in the 17th century into a stately castle, with symmetrical facades, round towers and an impressive thirteen-metre high keep — a remnant from the 13th century. The architecture reflects the transition from defensive structure to residential comfort: robust, but refined. The gardens, partly in French style with straight lines and box hedges, partly in English landscape style with winding paths and romantic corners, invite you to stroll and contemplate.

If you want to discover the history and art of the First World War, you can visit the Carrières de Confrécourt, a set of underground quarries that served as a refuge for French soldiers. There you can admire the sculptures and frescoes they carved on the walls, expressing their hopes, fears and memories. You will also be able to see the ruins of the monastic farm of Confrécourt, dating from the 12th century, where violent battles took place. The quarries are open for guided tours on the first Sunday of each month, from April to September, and you must book in advance.

One of the old piece of the region.
