This is the cathedral of Langres.

Imposing cathedral of a small town steeped in history! Worth seeing from the outside and inside

About halfway along, at a cowshed in the meadow, the road runs differently than on the map, but eventually you get back on the route

Langres Cathedral is dedicated to the 3rd century martyr Mammes of Caesarea. The cathedral is the seat of the Bishop of Langres and is a national monument. The cathedral dates from the 12th century and has a mixture of Romanesque, Gothic and Classical styles. The roof is decorated with colourful tiles and the façade has many details. The cathedral has some remarkable tapestries that are worth seeing. The cathedral is also a place of pilgrimage, as it houses the holy relic of the head of Saint Mammes. The cathedral is 94m long and 23m high. The façade was destroyed by fire and replaced in the 18th century by a three-storey classical façade.

The Marne (Latin Matrona) is a river in France. It rises on the plateau of Langres, in the municipality of Balesmes-sur-Marne, at an altitude of about 420 meters. It initially drains to the northwest, later turns to the west and southwest and flows into the Seine as a right tributary after about 514 kilometers between Charenton-le-Pont and Ivry-sur-Seine, just southeast of Paris. Several French departments are named after the Marne, namely Haute-Marne, Marne, Seine-et-Marne and Val-de-Marne.

Originally, Lake Liez was called “Lecey dyke”. This is linked to the digging of the Marne-Saône canal. The Liez dam is 490 meters long and 16 meters high. It is the largest of the four feeding lakes of the upper reach of the canal between Champagne and Burgundy.

This wood is in the Saint-Geosmes national forest, there is a fitness trail, a botanical trail and a treetop adventure park.

The path to get there is also very pretty.
