Things to see and do Aube

Here, with 30,000 bottles year-round, we can claim to be specialists. The Hotte family (a name predestined to the country of Othe!) perpetuates tradition and preserves the remains of over 300 presses, which a time scattered the region. The décor is like the product: wooden grinding is a counter. The visit is free for the individual and guided for the groups, not to mention that Corinne and Gérard, the owners, are very available. They're having fun themselves with their old tools, and in September or October, it's the 17 th rush that's going to happen in the old, old-fashioned. Here, ciders and juice are 100% organic and based on local apple varieties exclusively. Special mention for organic apple juice silver medal 2018.

As in the middle of a field, the Dosches mill is worth a visit after a hike in the East Forest Park. This mill, inaugurated in 2007, was entirely designed and realized by the association of windmills with windmills. The purpose: reproduce a pivot mill as there were 140 in the Dawn in the eighteenth century. Functional, it is used by sucker or animators to explain the manufacture of flour at the time. You can then watch the bread at the Dimanches in the countryside. You will first be welcomed in a beautiful barn, where the mill shop is also located. The walk in the garden around the site is also really pleasant. You can plan to spend the whole afternoon there. The association's website is very comprehensive and you will find all the information to prepare your visit.

This natural site in the near outskirts of the city is the opportunity for families to relax by playing adventurers, without risk, because the site is well marked, with various routes more or less disgraded. The site was once the site of Montaigu Castle, now disappeared. The route of Compostelle between Troyes and Auxerre also borrowed the path of the castle. Here, children are now taking pleasure in arbating the steep trails, picking up strands through wood, asking themselves in the openings… The most despicable will go out to ATV, with a possible departure from the ancient church of Laines-aux-Bois and a loop by Souligny. The place is perfect for picnics and ample enough to multiply walks but the evening comes, it is much less popular, and very isolated…

The Benedictine abbey resided here until the Revolution removes it. A look at an Assumption by Jean Nicot in a monumental reissue, work by sculptor Gérard Gautier (1759). This church was restored in the th, th, th and th centuries. There is a Romanesque nave, but also a double transept in Gothic style. A historic monument, it is well preserved. Glass slabs retrace the Cross path.

Neuville-sur-Valve, St-Benoit-sur-Valve… The Valve waters this whole region before drinking the Parisians. She takes her source here, under St. Alban Church, at Mount Pimont. Go down 50 m and cross the national that gives such a dull and so sad appearance in the village. Don't trust appearances, bend behind the bus bus… You're rewarded: below is a beautiful covered th-century wash wash, with a wooden area, which is well restored and leaves its vats in the first waters of the nascent creek. With a picnic, you will be installed on this green rest area along which the first waves of the watercourse wind.

It is a place that is often ignored and even more function. The Mussy-sur-Seine cooler consists of a spectacular stone cylinder of 10 m deep and about 7 m in diameter. From the outside, difficult to get a clear idea of the thing. This cooler was in some way the fridge of Langres bishops when they stayed in Mussy during the summer. It is in an excellent state of conservation, rare in France, and is visible upon request at the tourist office.

It has the particularity of preserving young girls from men's the.

If we know the Faux de Verzy in the Marne, we know less about this tree which is more than 800 years old. There are few in France. It was a junction of three fields, hence its name. It is 5 metres wide and it is even said that some people hid there during the Second World War. A superb site that gives a good excuse for a walk.

Villenauxe now has 104 hectares of vine classified as Champagne and is the southwestern end of the Marnese vineyard (Reims, Épernay). Despite this, we are far from the 300 winemakers in the early nineteenth century. Here, champagne almost fell into hiding because of phylloxera, at the beginning of the twentieth century. It took 1970 for the activity to resume. Beyond these bubbles, a Easter fair acts as a trade show with forks for the smallest, street shows, in a friendly atmosphere.

This artificial lake, like those of the Orient and the Temple, offers this undeniable asset to be warm, with a sandy beach, and wild, which makes it one of the most beautiful. A picnic design completes the whole. Motonautism is also at the heart of it, it is even the largest lake in Europe for this sport but from May 1 you can also start fishing in pike. The smaller than that of the Dawn, it offers a leisure base and a port of 240 seats. 200 locations are reserved for vehicles, with rings for trailers. Everything is thought of here for holidaymakers: Sumptuous, bars, bakeries and small rental accommodation in order to relax away from the city, with all the comfort. The fishermen will also find their happiness and the Vélovoie offers access to the other lakes while cycling. Those who enjoy the jet will be equally satisfied. Indeed, if the speed is limited to 60 km/h on the whole site, an unlimited circuit allows to allow each sensation.

Superb champagne house restored according to the old methods.

Dating back to 1868, this washing machine is part of those where the brick dominates. You will reach it from the church, continuing the small path with a pump marking the entrance. It is for washing in the form of a closed cage, but it is mainly the two slopes which seem to lock the wash. A rather picturesque place…
