Brienne-le-Château, the imperial city

Set off to explore the famous imperial city of Napoleon Bonaparte, during a guided tour of approximately 1 hour 30 minutes.

This town, so dear to Napoleon I, has so much to tell! In this town steeped in history, you'll be surprised to learn that many famous figures have passed through Brienne. During this guided tour through the historic streets of what was once called "Brienne-Napoleon," you can admire its unique heritage: its castle, which now gives it its name; its town hall and its famous statue of the Emperor; the wooden market hall; the Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul with its remarkable stained-glass windows… Not forgetting the former Royal Military School, which now houses the Napoleon Museum, where Napoleon I stayed during his childhood. #visiteBLC
