The best parties Provins

Every year, Provins brings back to life the Champagne Fairs of the ^12th and ^13th centuries, France's largest medieval festival. Share the moment with family and friends, discovering shows and fun activities. On the program: troubadours, acrobats and entertainers, games, jousts, music, dances and legends, as well as craftsmen demonstrating their skills in pottery, illumination and blacksmithing. Days that always leave unforgettable memories!

Every year in November, Provins honors its specialty, the niflette, a pastry whose puff pastry covers a soft, unctuous cream subtly flavored with orange blossom. A real delight! The people of Provence will tell you that the origins of this gourmet sin date back to the Middle Ages. In those days, it was given to orphans on All Saints' Day, a gesture accompanied by a " Ne flete! ("Don't cry!"), hence the name niflette. Today, the tradition lives on in a convivial atmosphere organized around events, workshops and a gourmet market.
