Back in the 1980's, my brother and I were lucky enough to have some family members from France take us in during the summer breaks from school. We got to visit and grow acclimated with Paris. Yet, we also got to know some other parts of France, as well.
One of the towns that I really enjoyed exploring was Champlitte, a village in eastern France. There are pictures that some family members took back then, although the ones below are pictures of several postcards and stickers (see the pictures) of Champlitte.
Champlitte is a charming little town, with a stream running through it. It has a chateaux, officially known as the Château-Musée de Champlitte, with some formal gardens in the front, as well as a beautiful old church with an impressive tower. Also, there is at least a decent part of the town that looks much as it has for hundreds of years, with little to no major changes in the intervening years and decades and even centuries.
The Château-Musée de Champlitte has been closed, but is about to reopen again (see link below).
Enjoy!
