Tithe barn with typical stone façade, used as a covered market for Champagne fairs, tithe warehouse

Not far from the Place du Châtel, this 13th-century stone-fronted barn served as a covered market during the Champagne fairs. It comprised an upper floor used as a store, a lower room with a pointed vault and carved capitals, and several living rooms. In the 17th century, it was used as a tithe warehouse. In addition to its architecture, the house features mannequins representing merchants and trades of the Middle Ages: moneychanger, public letter-writer, potter, stonecutter, parchment-maker and more.

Belle muséographie. La visite est intéressante et les foires du moyen-âge sont bien expliquées.
Dommage que les audioguides soient un peu poussifs.

Une 10 de tableaux avec mannequins. Une animation audio guide qui laisse à désirer le système est à revoir. J'ai vu mieux.

Middle age scenes I love to read about, very well reproduced in this XII century building!

Englisch: Never ever in my life made an audioguide so much différence. It really brings the exposits to life. The descriptions on the tags are meager.

Français : jamais de ma vie la recommandation pour l'audioguide était si juste. Cela donne vie aux personnages. Les descriptions sur les panneaux sont très maigres.

Une scénographie de qualité accompagnée par des commentaires audios exceptionnels !
