This place challenges you to use your imagination and asks you to stay and listen to the stories. There is something about the map room that inspires you to learn more about those who sat there in 1945 and asks you to look more closely at the people behind the names. There is something about the story of the unofficial newspaper that shows the US determined to seperate information from propaganda to let the front line forces make up their own minds, as the Axis trops were unable to. And there is something about the newspaper articles that casts sharp focus on history. The museum itself casts sharp focus of the position of Reims in history, and to the Second World War in particular. I can think of few places that will better reward the time spent here.

Inaugurated in 2008, the new Memorial has been installed at the foot of the Cross of Lorraine. More than just an account of the life of the great man, the Memorial is a journey through time, spread over 1600m2 where each visitor can explore the history of the French people in his own way. The Call of 18 June, the Liberation, May 68, the Thirty Glorious Years,the end of empire… the spectacular living, interactive exhibition lets you rediscover the major events in the life of Charles de Gaulle. A life that left a profound impression on the history of France, a life that shapedyour history, forever.

The Charles de Gaulle Museum is sited and bult so that the vastness of the Haut Marne landscape is evident from the foyer, thereby giving visitors a literally heightened sense of de Gaulle's view from his study, in La Boisserie, his house at the other end of the village. The museum contains artefacts, documents, and media presenting, illustrating and explaining the life and achievements of one of the Twentieth Century's great men. One has neither to be French nor in agreement with all he did to get a sense of the immense public aura of the man as well as of his personal modesty. For anyone wishing to begin to grasp his significance (and an understanding of 20th Century France) this museum is a must.

Located on the former front of Champagne, the Marne 14-18 Interpretation Centre offers an original, interactive and humanist display of World War I : an approach which is at the same time educational, emotional and spectacular.See an original movie after the correspondence between three brothers in the front and their sister behind the lines.

Compact and accessible WW1 centre ; well-presented exhibits. A must-see is the very evocative memorial near the adjacent church to four executed French soldiers. The story behind their execution is very poignant.
