Travel back in time along woodland paths to reach the Butte du Château with its 13th century Gothic church, where a superb panoramic view of the Hotel de Ville and the Musée d’Art et d’Histoire awaits you.
A landmark in history: Dom Pérignon, the inventor of champagne, was born here, his statue stands proud in Square Pasteur and a square of 250 vines on the hillside pays tribute to him.
Sainte-Ménehould is also where Louis XVI was discovered on the run before his arrest at Varennes in June 1791.
