The market hall and the surrounding square are a testament to history. Time seems to have stood still here. Today, the market hall is used for events and no longer for the cattle market.

The Château des Maidens The following information is taken from the following link: https://www.chateau-fort-manoir-chateau.eu/chateaux-marne-chateau-a-broyes-chateau-de-broyes.html#google_vignette In 1580, Protestant troops burned the village, the castle, and the church. In the 17th century, the town of Broyes was a barony owned by the Barbin family, who had acquired it at the end of the 16th century. Its location on a limestone plateau facilitated its defense and development. At that time, there were two churches (the collegiate church of Saint-Blier and the parish church of Saint-Martin). The castle, known as the Château des Pucelles, had a chapel (Notre-Dame). Today, the Broyes town hall houses the remains of the Château des Pucelles, to which General Humbert was forced to move his headquarters on September 7, 1914. Of this building, mentioned since the 11th century and the birthplace of one of the most powerful families in Champagne, a pavilion flanked by a brick watchtower adjoins the old entrance, recognizable by its carriage arch, the recess of its drawbridge, and the traces of its portcullis (early 17th century), still survives. Château de Broyes 51120 Broyes, property of the municipality, Town Hall.
