Surrounded by vineyards, hills and a river, Bar-sur-Aube<\/strong> is a characterful town in the heart of the C\u00f4te des Bar.<\/p>\n

From the 12th century onwards, the town flourished thanks to the nearby Abbey of Clairvaux and the bustling Champagne Fairs. Its prosperous past has left a remarkable legacy.
