The local church Eglise Nazareth, a bit dilapidated. Looked like it might have been inspired by the architecture of Le Corbusier.

Old church Saint-Martin de Langres, present form developed in various stages between the 13th and 18th century. I admired their daring use of the colour red!

1 Review and 29 Opinions Langres is a very small town. The hotel is located directly in the center, everything that you need...
Hotel Restaurant Marmotte: Hotel Restaurant Marmotte
Suet Says: Very nice modern chic hotel. We stayed one night on our way to Blere near Tours. I found the staff very helpful and polite, nothing was too much trouble. We ate in the restaurant which was in the hotel. Very good food and beautifully served.
Hotel Restaurant Marmotte: Cheap lodgings
egonwegh Says: Cheap lodgings, but not so very pleasant, the room was a bit untidy and we noticed that previous guests had all been heavy smokers.
aski Says: Hotel with family rooms in Center of Langres. Family rooms (two) for five persons were 110 euro. Breakfast adults 9 euro and 4,5 for children. Own parking facility.Good restaurant. Reserve if you want to eat there. Great restaurant.
Favorite thing: Visit the ramparts and corner towers. These were used by the romans for the armies. Some entrance into the city were used by the results of battles, if victorious, the formal entrance were used, if defeated, they would use the lower undecorated portals. Its a very old town, full of history. The cathedral St Mammes is nice. I was born there. Went back and discoverd that it is now a tourist town. If you like old place with history, visit there, During WWII it was used as an R&R area by the german troups. The camping area, with its 16th century "tour navare", has been drastically changed for the better since I was there. We used to run to it during air strikes. I walked the whole place as a kid, and was amazed that 40 yrs later I could still find my way with not problems. There is no growth available in town as it is confined within ramparts, but outside its walls is very nice also. E-mail me if you want more info.
Fondest memory: Going into the surrounding woods and picking lily of the valley, violets, wild strawberries in the spring and summer.
