Tithe barn with typical stone façade, used as a covered market for Champagne fairs, tithe warehouse

Not far from the Place du Châtel, this 13th-century stone-fronted barn served as a covered market during the Champagne fairs. It comprised an upper floor used as a store, a lower room with a pointed vault and carved capitals, and several living rooms. In the 17th century, it was used as a tithe warehouse. In addition to its architecture, the house features mannequins representing merchants and trades of the Middle Ages: moneychanger, public letter-writer, potter, stonecutter, parchment-maker and more.

Un petit musée extrêmement intéressant, sympathique, chaleureux, assez court (prévoir 30 minutes de visite) sur 2 niveau nous pouvons admirer de petites scènes de mannequin qui nous présente les métiers d'autrefois, comme par exemple la tisseuse qui s'occupe de fabriqué des tissus, l'écrivain public qui s'occupait jadis d'écrire l'état civil, les comptes de commerçants entre autres. Je vous recommande vivement d'y aller surtout si vous vous intéressez à l'histoire et/où au métiers du moyen âge

Ein etwas versteckter altertümlicher Markt. Besichtigungsdauer ca. 40 Minuten mit Audioguide in 5 Sprachen (Französisch, Englisch, Spanisch, Deutsch, Chinesisch). Der Besuch ist sehr informativ über die mittelalterliche Zeit.
