Épernay, Champagne capital in Marne, France

Located 130 kilometers northeast of Paris, Épernay extends along the left bank of the Marne River at the end of the Cubry valley.

The territory belonged to the archbishops of Reims from the 5th to 10th century before passing to the counts of Champagne and enduring severe damage in the Hundred Years' War.

The Avenue de Champagne features numerous 19th-century mansions with underground networks of chalk cellars storing millions of bottles of champagne from different producers.

The railway station connects Épernay to Paris, Strasbourg, Reims, Metz, and Nancy, making it accessible for visitors exploring the Champagne region.

The cellars beneath the city form a subterranean network extending over 100 kilometers, maintaining specific temperature and humidity conditions for champagne aging.
