The cathedral in Troyes was dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul (SAINTS PIERRE et PAUL), also known as the "Prince of the Apostles." Their common feast day in the calendar of saints is June 29th. * Simon, nicknamed Peter (Rock), was a fisherman on the Sea of Galilee when he, along with his brother Andrew, was called by Jesus Christ to be a "fisher of men." According to Catholic understanding, he is the highest apostle, and the two-millennia-long line of popes—currently Francis—follows his succession. In statues and paintings, Peter is almost always depicted with two keys in his hand; this attribute refers to the biblical passage in Matthew: "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Chapter 16, Verse 19). * Paul was initially an opponent of the Christian movement and, unlike the other apostles, was not called to the apostleship by Jesus Christ during his lifetime. Instead, he was converted later with the famous "Damascus Experience." His attribute is the sword with which he was executed. According to Roman law at the time, such a sentence was a "privilege" (a quick death, not a long, painful death struggle like other forms of execution) reserved for the citizens of Rome.

Gentle hills, vast forests surrounding it and fields of wheat or barley bending in the wind, the valley of the village of Sommeval has something welcoming and peaceful. At the edge of the forest, the view is remarkable.

This part of the Aube department attached to the microregion called Champagne Humide is very forested. The Rumilly forest is a good example. These species are mainly made up of hardwoods such as hornbeams and oaks. For the cyclist, traveling the long fine gravel paths of this forest is a real pleasure. Be careful, however, with the parts that are a little muddy in places.
