At number 13 Avenue de Champagne, the Château Perrier, a former merchant's house, holds the museum of Champagne wine and regional archaeology. The route runs from the geology of the chalk to Celtic and Merovingian jewellery, and then through about ten rooms on how champagne has been made and drunk, with touch tables, virtual reality headsets and an aroma table.
Opening hours and prices
From November to March it is open Wednesday to Friday from 13:30 to 18:00, and Saturdays and Sundays from 10:00 to 18:00; it is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. The rest of the year it is open every day except Tuesdays. Entry costs €10 (€6.50 for ages 13 to 25 and over-65s) and is free for under-13s and for everyone on the first Sunday of each month. Telephone: +33 3 26 55 03 56.
With children
It is the best stop of the day for them: the screens, the fossils and the aroma table work well, and there is no waiting for a tasting.
