Nogent-sur-Seine

Nogent-sur-Seine is a commune in Grand Est that spreads across both banks of the Seine River. A network of canals runs through the settlement, creating distinct districts and shaping the town's layout.

The town saw action during the 1814 Campaign, when Napoleon's forces clashed with advancing coalition troops in the region. This military period left a mark on the settlement's past.

The Musée Camille Claudel honors the sculptor who made her home here, displaying works that reflect her artistic vision and influence. Locals take pride in this connection to French art history and the museum's role in keeping her memory alive.

The Hôtel de Ville on Grande Rue Saint-Laurent serves as the main administrative hub near the town center. Visitors can find official services and local information there.

The Nogent Nuclear Power Plant on the Seine produces electricity through four reactors that serve the broader region. This facility plays a major role in power generation for Grand Est.
