Grange aux dîmes, Medieval tithe barn in Provins, France.
The stone building consists of three levels: a vaulted cellar with cross-ribbed vaults, a first-floor trading area, and a top residential floor.
Built during the 13th century, this structure initially served as a covered marketplace during the Champagne trade fairs before becoming a tithe collection point.
The interior displays wax figures representing medieval merchants and craftsmen, including cloth traders, money changers, and parchment makers from different European regions.
Located at 3 rue Saint-Jean in Provins, the barn offers 35-minute audio-guided tours with adult admission at 5 euros and children's tickets at 3 euros.
The cellar features intricate stone capitals decorated with foliage patterns, demonstrating medieval architectural craftsmanship from the Champagne region.
