EMMANUELLE TERRIBILE (6 months ago)
Terrible owner who only thinks about money. Our guests were outraged by his attitude. Organizing our children's wedding was a journey full of pitfalls for them and a visit to the castle was even made on the day of the wedding. During the visit, everything is possible and included in the prices. In reality, everything is extra. No cooking for the caterer!!! Flies and cockroaches in the rooms and non-existent heating. Flee this place and especially its owners!!!

Visit on Saturday for the heritage days of this magnificent castle. Adorable and passionate owners. Patrick with all his anecdotes about the place took us back in time. Thank you to them for this pleasant moment.

We had such a perfect stay here, the castle is beautiful, the rooms spacious, and the host treats you like family. Wholeheartedly recommend spending a few nights here, while exploring the Champagne region. The castle is located in between Épernay and Troyes, and Châlons-en-Champagne is also a surprisingly nice and friendly town with some very good restaurants.

Fantastically beautiful ambience, great facilities, fantastic food personally prepared by the castle owner. This one is patient and great with kids. From a place of transit to one of the lasting impressions of the holiday. Thank you for the hospitality.

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.
