The medieval town of Troyes

The medieval town of Troyes located on the Seine 160 km east of Paris, in the department of Aube, in the Champagne-Ardenne region, will seduce you with its rich history and its architectural and urban heritage. Classified as a City of Art and History because of the great concentration of half-timbered houses dating back to the 16th century, the Renaissance palaces, the narrow streets in the centre, the magnificent stained glass windows and the 9 churches protected by cultural heritage. The heart of the city has the exact shape of a "champagne cork", a curious peculiarity and certainly unique in the world!
