Discover Mareuil-Le-Port

Mareuil-Le-Port can be explored through several themes: the history of Église Saint-Rémi, leisure activities at the Bord de Marne site, and the location of Cerseuil winery on the slopes of the left bank of the Marne and its tributary, the Flagot. Other topics range from a half-day Solex tour in Champagne to a cellar tour at Champagne Mathelin. If you are looking for a hotel in Mareuil-Le-Port, you can first decide whether architecture, outdoor activities, or champagne production will be the focus of your trip.

History of Église Saint-Rémi

Église Saint-Rémi replaced the oratory that stood beside a former castle fortress dating from the 10th century. Its historical context therefore includes the fortress and the former oratory, as well as the later church building. The Romanesque tower dates from the 12th century, while some stained-glass windows from the 16th century have been preserved. These different centuries provide a timeline that encompasses more than a single construction date. Those interested in architecture can understand the church through its various points of reference: its earlier history with the oratory, the Romanesque tower, and the surviving windows.

Leisure at the Bord de Marne site

The Bord de Marne site has a promenade, games for children of all ages, a fitness trail with exercise equipment, a water-skiing facility, and a pétanque court. The offerings range from the path and exercise equipment to dedicated play and sports activities. Each has a different purpose: the promenade is a space in its own right, the trail has equipment for working out, and pétanque and water skiing are separate activities. The games for children of all ages round out the selection. When planning your time at the site, you can start with the activity that interests you most rather than treating all the offerings as a single leisure program.

Wine country and a Solex tour

Cerseuil winery in Mareuil-le-Port is located on the slopes of the left bank of the Marne and its tributary, the Flagot. Its setting is defined by this hillside location and its relationship to both waterways. The Solex tour offers a different way to experience Champagne: it is designed as a half-day outing. During the tour, vineyards and villages pass by along Champagne country roads. These two themes offer different perspectives: Cerseuil represents a specific landscape setting, while the tour takes in vineyards and villages along the roads. You can allow for the half-day duration as a separate block of time when planning your trip.

Cellar tour and wine tasting

Champagne Mathelin offers a cellar tour that presents the champagne-making process from the grape harvest through to labeling the bottles. The tour follows the stages of work along the production process. In one area, more than 250,000 bottles are slowly aging; cellar stocks may change. Champagne Mathelin also offers a tasting of its wines. The tour and tasting have different focuses: one presents the production stages, while the other focuses on the wines themselves. As cellar contents and visiting arrangements may change, check the current visiting conditions in advance.
