Chances are you’ve already seen the train station of Reims when arriving to the city. And if you haven’t, you will during the audio tour! This impressive building first opened its doors in 1858, but has since then been renovated twice. The station is also where you’ll find a tourist information office!

The bustling heart of the city, this promenade is filled with cafes, restaurants, stores and hotels and is a popular meeting place for locals and tourists alike. It’s almost a requirement to visit this square during your visit to Reims!

This gorgeous, historic cinema complex has always played an important role in the city’s film culture. The doors first opened on January 27th, 1923 and has since then been a sight to behold. Admire the beautiful exterior, or even go inside to the building, which is now a well-known clothing store, Mango.

The architectural marvel of the city, a symbol of justice and authority– Palais de Justice. The building is certainly not only a wonder from the inside, but the outside as well!
