Manufacture royale de draps Le Dijonval, Royal cloth manufactory in Sedan, France.

The neoclassical building stands in a U-shape along the Meuse River, featuring a bell tower and four distinct levels of architecture.

In 1646, King Louis XIV granted three Parisian merchants the exclusive privilege to manufacture fine black cloth using Dutch methods for 20 years.

The factory established Sedan as a center of textile production, leading to the development of specialized cloth-making techniques in northeastern France.

Located at 6-10 Avenue du General Margueritte, the building now functions as a residential complex while maintaining its historical exterior features.

The manufactory remained the only producer of fine cloth in France for two decades, setting standards for textile production across the nation.
