Reims green corridor

Highlight • Trail

The green belt of Reims connects the Aisne à la Marne canal to the Vesle river from Saint-Brice-Courcelles to Sillery.
Some sites along this green belt are protected from any human intrusion, thus allowing for increasing diversification and development of flora and fauna.
This 24-kilometer cycle path of landscaped banks allows you to get out and return to the heart of the city easily, avoiding any road traffic.

The statue depicts the baptism of Clovis, the first king of the Franks, by Saint Remi, the Archbishop of Reims. The statue was made by the Dutch artist Daphné Du Barry and donated by the champagne house Louis Roederer on the occasion of the 15th centenary of the baptism in 1996. The statue stands in front of the former Saint-Julien church, near the Saint-Remi basilica, where the relics of the saint are preserved. The statue was blessed by Pope John Paul II during his visit to Reims in 1996. The statue is a symbol of the historical and religious significance of the baptism of Clovis, considered the founder of France and the spreader of Christianity in Europe .
