Town hall of Épernay, 19th century town hall in Épernay, France.
The town hall of Épernay is a 19th-century building made of cut stone with Second Empire architectural details on Avenue de Champagne. The structure spreads across multiple floors, with the mayor's offices and municipal services located in the upper levels.
Victor Moët commissioned architect Victor Le Noir to design this private residence in 1858, and it became the town hall in 1920. The shift from a wealthy home to a public building shaped how the place was adapted and used.
The four reception rooms serve as wedding venue and council chamber, showing how a former aristocratic home became the center of civic life. Visitors can see this transformation reflected in the way these spaces are arranged and decorated.
The building is easy to spot from outside on Avenue de Champagne and can be viewed from the street. For visiting the interior, check ahead about opening hours since only certain areas or times are open to visitors.
The surrounding park features a replica of the Temple of Love from Versailles and blends French and English garden styles. This mix of garden traditions makes the space feel like different influences meet in one location.
