Why is this medieval town near Paris a hidden gem?

Описание: Learn about this historic economic capital, home of the Fairs of Champagne at the crossroads between the textiles in the Low Countries and the merchants from the Silk Road in Italy.

This town escaped the ravages of time and industry to become one of the best-preserved towns of the Middle Ages, with its citadel nearly unchanged since the 14th century.

Known now for "Les médiévales de Provins," it hosts an annual Renaissance Festival which takes place June 14 and 15, 2025
