Visiting Maison Pommery and the Villa Demoiselle can both be toured in Reims. The Pommery chalk caves are now a UNESCO World Heritage site.
The Villa Demoiselle is an architectural gem dating back to the beginning of the 20th century, and it has been imbued with fresh splendour thanks to the passion of its owners, Paul-François and Nathalie Vranken, after it had been left and abandoned for many years
The property is a unique expression of close co-operation between architects, cabinet makers and decorators united by the same inspiration, between Art Nouveau and Art Deco. Today, the Villa Demoiselle boasts an amazing collection signed by the greatest artists of the Art Nouveau era with major works by Majorelle, Serrurier-Bovy, Selmersheim, Daum, Gallé.
It is absolutely stunning but if you do visit, please factor in the fact that they close for lunchtime. It is a must-see for any fans of Art Deco. You can walk there from the center of Reims in about 25 minutes.
At the end of the visit, you get to have a glass of champagne in the beautiful surroundings of the gardens.
