Champagne-Ardenne
Champagne-Ardenne was a region in northeastern France, known for its lush landscapes and historic villages. It comprised four departments: Ardennes, Aube, Marne, and Haute-Marne. The area is famed for its production of Champagne, a sparkling wine made through specific fermentation techniques. The region offers a mix of forests, rolling hills, and rivers, making it attractive for outdoor activities and tourism. In 2016, Champagne-Ardenne merged with Lorraine and Alsace to form the larger Grand Est region, streamlining administrative functions while preserving its rich cultural heritage.
