Charleville-Mézières charms visitors with its diversity and rich heritage. The architecture in Charleville is Renaissance-style, while in Mézières it is medieval. Its name is rooted in the history of poetry and, today, in the living art of puppetry. The river serves as a link between the twin cities.
In Charleville, you’ll find shopping, the riverfront, and the legacy of Rimbaud.
In Mézières, the proud medieval ramparts and the dazzling beauty of the basilica’s stained-glass windows—the work of Durrbach, a collaborator and friend of Picasso.
