\nLa Cathedrale de Reims<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n

Reims is one of the most popular day trips from Paris. Below is information about the city, including things to do and how to get there.<\/p>\n

The City of Reims<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reims (EN: Rheims), a northern French city, is located about 145 kilometers (90 miles) northeast of Paris. Historically the site where French kings were crowned, today Reims is better known for its cathedral and its Champagne. The city itself is small, walkable, and easily accessible from Paris by train. <\/p>\n

Reims Cathedral<\/strong>
\nAddress: Place du Cardinal Lucon, 51100, Reims, France<\/p>\n

The Notre-Dame de Reims Cathedral was built during the late Gothic period, and is renowned for both its function as a coronation site and its staggering height. Visitors can admire the beautiful stained glass and statuary (don’t miss the Chagall stained glass windows), as well as its pictorial tribute to the making of Champagne.<\/p>\n

Saint Remi Basilica in Reims<\/strong>
\nAddress: Place du Chanoine Ladame, 51100, Reims, France<\/p>\n

On the outskirts of town, the Romanesque church of Saint Remi is well worth the trip. A Benedictine abbey church, the Saint Remi Basilica contains a collection of stained glass windows from the 1300s and a beautiful organ.<\/p>\n

Champagne in Reims<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many visitors are attracted to Reims because of its location in the heart of Champagne. If you are interested in imbibing the bubbly, many Champagne houses do tastings and host tours of the caves. Calling ahead to reserve a space on a tour is encouraged, but not necessary. <\/p>\n

Some of the most famous Champagne houses in Reims include Veuve Clicquot, Taittinger, Pommery, and Mumm.<\/p>\n
