The Pommery cellars offer one of the best visiting experiences. The fairy-tale castle complex that Madame Pommery established in 1868 is simply charming. Built over a massive area of 50 hectares, the cellars exude the magnificence of the late nineteenth century. More than 100 Gallo-Roman crayères (chalk quarries) are joined together in an 18-kilometre labyrinthine network that houses 25 million bottles of champagne. Anyone interested in art will love the temporary exhibition of art installations, from which the Vrankens choose their favourites each year to permanently place in the cellars for decoration.
