Congrégation Notre-Dame de Reims, Private educational institution in Reims, France.

Congrégation Notre-Dame de Reims is a school complex in central Reims with multiple buildings located on rue Saint Pierre les Dames. The facility teaches students across different divisions, including specialized programs for students with special needs and bilingual classes.

The school grounds originated from a hospital founded in the 13th century, later transformed into a teaching institution by Mother Vincelet. This conversion beginning in 1824 marked the start of a long tradition of educational use at this location.

The school carries the name of its patron saint and reflects the religious tradition that shaped its founding. Today, students and teachers use the spaces to practice values of community and openness.

The school complex is centrally located in Reims and is easily accessible on foot, with multiple entrances to the various buildings. Those interested in school programs should contact the administration in advance.

The grounds once housed weaving machinery in a former chapel space, showing how the use of these buildings has changed over centuries. This industrial chapter left marks in the building structure that remain visible today.

French winter destinations in cities and nature

France offers diverse winter destinations spanning both urban and natural landscapes. The Alpine regions contain several ski areas, including Chamonix-Mont-Blanc at the base of Western Europe's highest peak, Les Trois Vallées with its extensive network of runs, and L'Alpe d'Huez at elevations above 5,900 feet (1,800 meters). The Aiguille du Midi provides access to high alpine views through a cable car system, while Lake Annecy presents a winter landscape within the Savoie Alps. Cities across the country display their historical architecture during the colder months. Strasbourg Christmas Market transforms the city center into a seasonal gathering place, Nancy presents the 18th-century Place Stanislas, and Paris maintains structures including Sainte-Chapelle and the Jardin du Luxembourg. Beyond the capital, Versailles Palace stands with its formal gardens, Château de Chambord occupies the Loire Valley, and the Palais des Papes remains in Avignon. The Notre-Dame de Reims cathedral shows 13th-century Gothic architecture, while Mont Saint-Michel stays accessible on its tidal island. Additional sites include the Roman-era Nîmes Arena, Pont du Gard, and the medieval fortress of Carcassonne. The Grotte de Lascaux displays prehistoric art, while Les Eyzies de Tayac holds archaeological sites. Southern regions such as the Calanques near Marseille, Gorges du Verdon, Grande Plage in Biarritz, and Cap d'Ail Beach provide access to Mediterranean and Atlantic coastlines, even during winter months.

Photography in Reims: Gothic cathedral, Roman ruins, champagne caves

Reims is a city where different historical periods naturally exist side by side, making it a favorite for photographers. Churches and palaces from the Middle Ages stand near Roman ruins, while underground caves have been turned into champagne cellars. These underground spaces offer special settings, away from natural light, where the walls tell the story of past centuries. Walking through the streets of Reims, you see finely crafted stone facades, decorative sculptures, and buildings that show each period of its building history. The Place Royale with its statue of Louis XV, the Town Hall in Renaissance style, the Reims Cathedral in Gothic, and the Sube Fountain with art deco shapes all show this flow of styles. The shady parks around the city offer green spots to rest and new views of the buildings. Surrounding Reims, the vineyards grow grapes for champagne and complete this historic view. The city invites slow exploration, where each corner holds something to find—an architecture detail, an underground opening, a Roman remnant. By wandering like this, you can see how Reims has changed over time and how its history is still visible in the current cityscape.
