One of the most beautiful baroque squares in north-eastern France, twin sister of Place des Vosges in Paris
Classified as a historic monument in 1946, Place Ducale is the twin sister of Place des Vosges in Paris, born from the dream of an Italian prince, Charles de Gonzague. An architectural jewel of the 17th century, Place Ducale is the heart of Charleville.
In a harmonious baroque style, the square with its 26 pavilions sitting on a beautiful gallery of arcades, is illuminated by the warm and ocher notes of the Dom-le-Mesnil stone. Guided tours of the city are offered from March to October by the Tourist Office.
