Ardon Gate

Église Saint-Crépin-et-Saint-Crépinien is a church in Bouconville-Vauclair, dedicated to Saints Crépin and Crépinien, the patron saints of shoemakers. The church was built in the 13th century in Gothic style and has a square tower with a pointed arch portal. The church has been a historical monument since 1920 and contains some interesting works of art, such as a 16th-century wooden altarpiece, a 12th-century stone baptismal font and a 15th-century painted stained glass window.

Via Francigena: A particularly interesting village is Bouconville-Vauclair, home to the Vauclair Abbey, the Château de la Bôve and a network of trenches from the 14-18 war. Admittedly, most of the sights are outside the VFF17. The village certainly has a bit more colour, but is there still much life?

The Porte d’Ardon is one of the medieval city gates of Laon. The current structure dates from the 13th and 14th centuries. Originally, this gate was called “Porte Royée” because of its proximity to the royal palace of Laon. The gate consists of a châtelet with a portcullis and used to have doors. There was also a barbican, but this has now disappeared. Under the gate there was a fountain and wash houses, some of which still exist. The Porte d’Ardon was classified as a historical monument in 1909.

The village of Pierrepont already stands out - even on comments on the Internet - for the presence of a bakery and a bar. This compared to the other villages in the region that only house a church and a municipal school. We also noticed two beautiful scenes in the form of a mailbox incorporated in a bicycle and a fisherman on the other. The cross next to the Visser is also listed as a monument on Wikipedia.

Here, the city walker will find an early masterpiece of Gothic architecture, a style often found in this part of France – Chartres and Reims, for example, attract enthusiastic international visitors and are far more famous than Laon. In the following 13th century, many Gothic churches were built, not only in their country of origin, France, but also beyond the country's borders, where this sky-high, light-filled architectural style was now in great demand for new churches (for example, the laying of the foundation stone for Cologne Cathedral in 1248).

A beautiful place to relax!

A visit to the imposing cathedral is well worth it!
