Grandpré

Highlight • Other

Grandpré is a commune in the French department of Ardennes, in the Grand Est region. It has about 500 inhabitants and an area of 32.67 km². It is located on the River Aire and is part of the canton of Attigny.
Grandpré has a rich history, dating back to the Middle Ages. It was an important city in Champagne, which became a county and later a duchy. It had a castle, an abbey and a fortified wall, testifying to its power and influence. One of the sights is the Église Saint-Médard, a Gothic church from the 13th century, decorated with stained glass windows and sculptures.
Grandpré was also the scene of fierce fighting during the First World War. It was occupied by the Germans in 1914 and later liberated by the Americans in 1918. The village was largely destroyed by bombing and artillery. One of the monuments that commemorate this period is the Monument aux Morts, a memorial to the fallen soldiers, designed by the sculptor Paul Moreau-Vauthier.
Grandpré is a quiet and charming place where you can enjoy nature and the rural atmosphere. You can walk, cycle, fish or taste the local gastronomy. One of the specialties is the boudin blanc, a white sausage made from pork, cream and spices.
