18의 코트론가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Decorated with beautiful houses and surrounded by vineyards, life is good in Les Riceys. The village has many wineries that offer champagne tastings and cellar tours. It prides itself on being the only wine-growing commune in the region to have the three Champagne controlled appellations. If you want to taste champagne, the place is very suitable.

This neo-Gothic church was built in the 19th century to replace the old Romanesque church demolished in 1855. You can admire the stained glass windows and the organ which were donated by the family of Auguste Hériot, a famous businessman and politician. The church is also located in the village of Essoyes, where the painter Pierre-Auguste Renoir spent many summers and painted some of his most famous works.

This house, called "la Maison des Renoir", is a charming bourgeois residence typical of the region, surrounded by a picturesque landscape of vineyards and hills. Renoir often used the surroundings of the house as a backdrop for his paintings. Today it is open to the public as a museum.

The church of Essoyes is particularly known for its magnificent stained glass windows which date from the 16th century. These are renowned for their bright colors and tell biblical stories. This church also houses the tomb of Auguste Renoir, the famous French impressionist painter.

Great stop for a glass of fizz!

A very beautiful place that I've already passed twice on my long tours through France. The third time, I'll be staying longer.

Nice bars and restaurants on the Ource.
