Here, in 1792, during the Battle of Valmy, French troops stood against the Prussian armies. A simple windmill on a hill… which became a symbol of resistance.

The Saint-Roch chapel appeared in the 17th century, well before the La Harazée national necropolis next to which it is located. The latter contains the remains of 1,672 soldiers who fell during the Battle of Argonne.

Nice city, good to make a break and grab food.

Mémorial de Pennsylvania – Varennes-en-Argonne Erected in 1927 by the state of Pennsylvania, this neoclassical monument honors the American soldiers from Pennsylvania who helped liberate Varennes in 1918. Designed in the Greek style, the monument offers impressive views over the Aire Valley and bears the words of President Wilson: “The right is more precious than peace”.

We really liked the city and the surrounding area. We enjoyed our cycling trip.

Very nice to ride a bike. There are several corners here that invite you to linger.

Maison Clémangis is one of the oldest houses in the historic centre of Châlons-en-Champagne. It is a half-timbered house dating from the end of the 15th century12. Originally built on rue Clémangis, it was dismantled in 1970 and rebuilt a few years later on its current site on rue Nicolas Durand23. The house has a unique architecture with overhanging floors on two sides and a small tower at the back containing a staircase1. It is a beautiful example of medieval architecture and an important cultural heritage of the city.
