About the location

Mairie
5 Place de l'Hôtel de Ville, 08800 Les Hautes-Rivières
  • Ardennes
  • Grand Est
Nowadays, our town has five villages: Linchamps, Sorendal, La Neuville-aux-Haies, Failloue and Les Hautes-Rivières where the town hall is located, the latter village gives its name to the town.
The village of Linchamps had a forge before 1573 (according to the last serious information acquired), a rather important forge. It returned to the king in 1629 at the same time as the Principality of Château-Regnault (exchange with the Duke of Guise) and our villages are part of it. A furnace is then rebuilt on the same site.
