In a brochure entitled "A Call for Peace, Because Peace Is Possible," Father Klaus Schäfer of the Pallottine Order (Societas Apostolatus Catholici), founded in the mid-19th century by Saint Vincent Pallotti, writes: "The large military cemeteries of the two World Wars, not only those located in France, clearly demonstrate that former enemies can become friends. After the two bloodbaths of these nations, there were no recriminations about who shot first, who was more guilty, who was more cruel... instead, there was a clean break and a genuine new beginning. For this reason, the large military cemeteries of the two World Wars are worthy of being declared World Heritage Sites. This is not to elevate war to the status of culture, but to show the world that even after such a bloody past, peace is possible. Europe has shown us: PEACE IS POSSIBLE. Former enemies can become friends, true friends." (Fr. Klaus Schäfer SAC)

Champagne Heritage

Very pleasant circuit of the Marne Valley with hillside vineyards and pretty flower-filled houses.

The old wine press stands at a beautiful vantage point on the road from Château-Thierry to Passy-sur-Marne.

The cycle path runs directly along the banks of the Marne.

The castle ruins are quite large. Only the advanced structures of the important 13th-century castle remain today. The keep itself was destroyed in the 15th century.

Good for eating ice cream at the campsite cabin

Part of the Team Rynkeby Berlin tour in 2024. What a lovely place to have a break. 😍 And a sip. 😉
