Dans l'église de trouve le tombeau de dom Pérignon, c est la principale raison pour laquelle elle est célèbre, mais elle est en dehors de cela vraiment très jolie, et dans un cadre magnifique !

Certes l'église est plutôt jolie, mais l'intérêt se porte surtout sur le village. Il faut prendre le temps de se perdre dans cet authentique et magnifique village champenois situé en hauteur. Les points de vue sur le vignoble sont superbes.

Mais on retient surtout son site dominant les vignes , et bien sûr la tombe du célèbre Dom Pérignon . C'est lui qui fait déplacer les visiteurs venant parfois de très loin pour une photo
