In 2020, the Service Patrimoine Pays d'art et d'histoire published a FOCUS publication on the history of the Langres urban area. It is completed this summer, from 1 July to 10 October, with a free exhibition accessible on the Chemin de Ronde.
Located between the Saint-Ferjeux Tower and the Michaux Tower, it offers visitors the opportunity to enhance their discovery of the ramparts with historical information. In 12 panels, the urban enclosure has been approached since its creation in response to major migrations from the middle of the 3rd century to the present day. Illustrated with ancient views, hypotheses of 3D restitutions and photos of inaccessible elements, this exhibition offers a complete synthesis of the evolution of the fortifications of the historic center.
The FOCUS «The urban enclosure of the 3rd to the 21st century» is still on sale in the shop of the Museums of Langres and at the Tourist Office of the Pays de Langres. Associated with the FOCUS «La citadelle» it sweeps the history of the 8 km of the largest enclosure in Europe.
