Saint-Nicaise Hill & Les Crayères

The capital of Champagne heritage, featuring deep underground chalk quarries and grand estates.

Situated southeast of the center, this area is world-famous for its 'crayères'—ancient Gallo-Roman chalk pits now used as cellars by prestigious Champagne houses like Ruinart, Pommery, Taittinger, and Veuve Clicquot. It is a must-visit for wine tourism.
