Tips from the Community
The market hall and the surrounding square are a testament to history. Time seems to have stood still here. Today, the market hall is used for events and no longer for the cattle market.

An authentic brasserie – very friendly service. It's lovely to sit in front of the brasserie and look out over the square and the church. The café is very good!

I've seen such houses several times in Champagne. I have no idea how old these houses were or what their purpose was.

A somewhat dilapidated but nevertheless charming church, which knows how to inspire through the details. Entrance is free, photography is allowed and don't expect crowds of visitors.

This forest extends over more than 2500 hectares, it has rich flora and fauna. There is a Fau (old twisted oak) not far from the Etoile crossroads.

Here we find the double guillotine lock n°12-13 of Saint-Just-Sauvages. The setting is picturesque and bucolic.
