Tips from the Community
Today wooded - several markers indicate the most remarkable species - the mound opens onto a clearing where two ponds and a fountain indicating a source stand. At the bottom, several paths rise, sometimes abruptly, to the oppidum overlooking the site, crossing a double crown of ditches using footbridges. From there, several panoramas unfold offering breathtaking views of the city of Troyes and the Champagne plain.

The Montaigu fountain and pond are perfect places to take a break. The place has a picnic table and playground. On the hill of Montaigu, located above the source, was once the castle of the Counts of Champagne. The stronghold was destroyed in the 15th century following the Treaty of Troyes. At the top of the mountain, you have a panoramic view of the plain.
