It's a shame to leave this beautiful building abandoned, the city of Sedan is really not proud of its heritage ☹️

Sedan (Land of heroic deeds) The Ardennes massif is followed by a vast plain where the Meuse flows peacefully. This border region was at the crossroads of numerous invasions. Cities were fortified, castles became impregnable. History left a very heavy mark here. In the south, the landscape becomes softer, with a string of soothing undulations, a stark contrast to the battle that was fought there in 1870, in 1814, in 1940. Triggered?

At the end of the 16th century, a second great Protestant princely family marked the urban planning of the city. In 1613–1614, Henri de La Tour d'Auvergne built the Prince's Palace at the foot of the castle and a town hall, built to plans by Salomon de Brosse. Source: Sedan - Sites et Cités

This mighty fortress, the largest in Europe (35,000 m2, seven floors), was built on a rocky spur between the Bièvre and the Vra. The citadel is one of the oldest examples of French fortifications and could accommodate 4,000 soldiers. For five centuries, the fortress was strategically located between France and the Holy Roman Empire (and then Prussia and Germany) and was therefore constantly provided with new fortifications and thicker walls, while the existing structure was preserved. Wall 30 m high and up to 7.20 m thick with 4 bastions.

This charming little town has a significant historical and industrial heritage. It is nestled between the Meuse and the eponymous canal. Don't miss its beautiful Notre-Dame abbey church either.

This small town in the Ardennes is located at the confluence of the Chiers and the Meuse. The Eastern Canal also passes not far from its center where the Château de Remilly-Aillicourt is located, a private mansion built by a Sedan manufacturer in the 18th century.

The largest fortified castle in Europe, this fortress is a must-see in Sedan. The rocky promontory on which it was erected offers beautiful views of the city and the Meuse.
