Turenne High School

Highlight • Historical Site

The Lycée Turenne, built in 1883 by the architect Depaquit as a continuation of the Jesuit college, this building forms a harmonious whole that adopts the codes of the 17th century architecture of the Prince's Palace (stones cut in vermiculated bossage). In 1884, the Sedan Gustave Deloye sculpted a bas-relief on the facade depicting Turenne, a child, sleeping on the carriage of a cannon.

Sedan Town Hall

Highlight • Other

At the end of the 16th century, a second great Protestant princely family marked the urban planning of the city. In 1613–1614, Henri de La Tour d'Auvergne built the Prince's Palace at the foot of the castle and a town hall, built to plans by Salomon de Brosse.

Turenne Square

Highlight • Other

In the early 19th century, the city of Sedan underwent urban renovations. The demolition of the Floing bastion made way for a new quarter, which was decorated with a square bearing the name of Turenne. A bronze statue of Turenne, erected in 1821, stands in the center of the square.
The square has a great unity in its construction. The town hall and the courthouse, which face each other, are similar in their columns, frieze and cornices. The pediment of the town hall bears the city's coats of arms, namely a wild boar in front of an oak.

Meuse Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

On this bridge the Meuse flows under your feet.

Explanation of the course of the river:
The Meuse is a river that rises in France on the Plateau of Langres near Pouilly-en-Bassigny, and flows through Belgium and the Netherlands. The river is 950 kilometers long.


On the French part of the Meuse, it is canalized, and is called the Canal de la Meuse (Canal de la Meuse, and before 2003 it was called Canal de l'est branche Nord.) It mainly runs as a lateral canal along the Meuse. From Sedan the Meuse itself is navigable.

At Givet and Heer Agimont the Meuse enters Belgium. The Meuse in Belgium is canalized with 13 locks and weirs. The Meuse flows over 126.6 kilometers over Belgian territory. South of Maastricht, at Eijsden the Meuse enters the Netherlands.

In the Netherlands there are another 7 weirs and 6 locks. The Maas is navigable from the Sluis van Klein Ternaaien to the Borgharen weir. After the weir, the Maas forms the Grensmaas. The Grensmaas is not navigable until Maaseik. After that, the rest of the Maas can be navigated.

After 's Hertogenbosch, the Maas changes into the Bergse Maas. A dug canal to disconnect the Maas from the Waal.
