Aube, Administrative department in Grand Est, France
The territory extends over 6,004 square kilometers with three main arrondissements: Bar-sur-Aube, Nogent-sur-Seine, and Troyes, connected by departmental roads.
The National Assembly established the department on March 4, 1790, during the French Revolution, as part of the national territorial reorganization.
The department publishes a quarterly magazine called L'Aube Nouvelle that informs residents about local events, development projects, and community initiatives.
The administrative headquarters, located in Troyes, manages public services and coordinates activities across 431 municipalities through 17 administrative districts.
Four major rivers flow through the department: the Seine, the Aube, the Armance, and the Vanne, with the highest point at 371 meters in Champignol-lez-Mondeville.
