Wow! This place is amazing. Absolutely breathtaking house, beautifully furnished and managed by Fabrice and Aurélien, set in acres of woodland. This place is a real gem - ideal for relaxing and enjoying the French countryside. I am hesitant to rave too much about this place as I would love to keep it as our little secret, but that would be unfair to the owners who have dedicated so much time and effort into making the chateau such a magical place. If you are in the area or passing through Champagne, this is a must!

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
