EMMANUELLE TERRIBILE (6 months ago)
Terrible owner who only thinks about money. Our guests were outraged by his attitude. Organizing our children's wedding was a journey full of pitfalls for them and a visit to the castle was even made on the day of the wedding. During the visit, everything is possible and included in the prices. In reality, everything is extra. No cooking for the caterer!!! Flies and cockroaches in the rooms and non-existent heating. Flee this place and especially its owners!!!

Visit on Saturday for the heritage days of this magnificent castle. Adorable and passionate owners. Patrick with all his anecdotes about the place took us back in time. Thank you to them for this pleasant moment.

We had such a perfect stay here, the castle is beautiful, the rooms spacious, and the host treats you like family. Wholeheartedly recommend spending a few nights here, while exploring the Champagne region. The castle is located in between Épernay and Troyes, and Châlons-en-Champagne is also a surprisingly nice and friendly town with some very good restaurants.

Fantastically beautiful ambience, great facilities, fantastic food personally prepared by the castle owner. This one is patient and great with kids. From a place of transit to one of the lasting impressions of the holiday. Thank you for the hospitality.

Argos Theater

The ancient Argos Theater was built in 320 BC. and is located in Argos, Greece against Larissa Hill. Nearby from this site is Agora, Roman Odeon, and the Baths of Argos. The theater is one of the largest architectural developments in Greece and was renovated in ca 120 AD.

The Hellenistic theater at Argos is cut into the hillside of the Larisa, with 90 steps up a steep incline, forming a narrow rectilinear cavea. Among the largest theaters in Greece, it held about 20,000 spectators and is divided by two landings into three horizontal sections. Staircases further divide the cavea into four cunei, corresponding to the tribes of Argos A high wall was erected to prevent unauthorized access into the theatron and may have helped the acoustics, but it is said the sound quality is still very good today.

Around 120 CE, both theaters were renovated in the Roman style.
