The Saint-Remi Church in Charleville-Mézières is a neo-Romanesque church built in the 19th century on the site of a former chapel of the Christian Militia, a religious order founded by Charles de Gonzague in 1616. You can admire the impressive stone pulpit, stained glass windows, two organs and a painting on canvas in the transept. The church is dedicated to Saint Rémi, the bishop who baptized Clovis, the first king of the Franks. You can also explore the surrounding area, nicknamed the "little Latin quarter" of Charleville, and discover the richness of its cultural and architectural heritage.

The église Saint-Rémi was built in 1860-63 in neo-Romanesque style. Since the cathedral that Carlo Gonzaga wanted to build never came to be, the Eglise Saint-Rémi became the parish church of Charleville. The nave contains beautiful stained glass windows, made by the Troeyer studio in Reims in 1953-1954.
