Champagne Hillside, Houses, and Cellars
The Champagne hillsides, houses and cellars are testimony to a perfectly integrated living landscape. For over two centuries, the production of champagne has had a profound mark on the area and continues to shape the local economy, industry and society. The landscape represents a meeting point between the rural and urban worlds, between traditional cultural practices and technological innovation. The drink champagne is a testimony to both people and their landscapes, representing the evolution of a poor region ravaged by war into one of the most iconic drinks in the world.
