Château of the month
LE CHÂTEAU D'ETOGES
In the vicinity of Reims in Champagne, not far from the famous vineyards of la « Côte des Blancs », the Château d'Etoges was the kings' stop on their way eastward.
The medieval fortress, rebuilt in the 17th century stands in a wooden park with natural fountains. Louis XIV admired the numerous ornamental ponds; his descendant Louis XVI, when he fled to Varennes in 1791, recognised his valet's country house…
After the Revolution, Etoges became the property of Marshall Lannes's wife; there she played host to Napoleon the First's court.
Today, the Château has revived this tradition of warm welcome. Surrounded by moats and tastefully furnished, Etoges will also captivate you with its regional and refined cooking.
