Saint Nicholas (Saint-NICOLAS), Bishop of Myra, to whom the half-timbered church in Outines is dedicated, is - along with Saint Martin - one of the most popular saints of all. Almost every child in Germany - and far beyond - is probably familiar with his day of remembrance, December 6th. On the eve of this day, the children used to put their shoes or boots - which were of course cleaned with great care - in front of the door so that Saint Nicholas could fill them with gifts that night. In more agricultural areas, it was also customary for children to provide a small donation of food for the donkey, St. Nicholas' riding animal (according to another tradition, it was a gray horse).

Lac du Der-Chantecoq is a beautiful lake located in the Marne, where you can enjoy a variety of hiking trails and activities. Whether you want to explore the natural landscapes, observe the flora and fauna or relax on the beach, there is something for everyone.

In southern Champagne, between the Lac du Der-Chantecoq and the lakes of the Forêt d'Orient, there are a number of half-timbered churches (Eglises en pans de bois) from the 16th to 18th centuries. Without exception, the churches are located in smaller towns that lacked the financial resources for a stone building at the time of construction. Today the churches are considered special historical witnesses that have been renovated in recent years. They are accessible to tourists through a “Street of Half-timbered Churches” that connects some of the churches. The Church of Saint Nicholas was built around 1600. Source: Wikipedia
