Created during the French Revolution in 1790, its history is deeply marked by the evolution of the 19th century. From an antique map from this period, we can discern its initial configuration, a precious treasure for any collector or lover of the department, offering a unique perspective on its geographical and urban changes. Aube, with its gentle Champagne hills to the north, its vast cereal plains to the south, and its legendary forests from east to west, is bordered by the Marne, Haute-Marne, Côte-d'Or, Yonne and Seine-et-Marne. Troyes, its capital, is a medieval city remarkable for its architectural heritage, birthplace of the Count of Champagne Thibaut IV, a 13th century poet. In Bar-sur-Aube, stronghold of the Joinville family, historians of the crusades, we discover equally charming half-timbered houses. Nogent-sur-Seine, rich in its industrial past, was the home of the famous sculptor Camille Claudel. In Romilly-sur-Seine, the textile tradition has continued to this day, while in La Chapelle-Saint-Luc, the growth of the aeronautical industry is significant. In Les Riceys, the largest wine-growing commune in Champagne, a unique rosé wine is produced. Bar-sur-Seine, Sainte-Savine, Saint-André-les-Vergers and Saint-Julien-les-Villas are also key towns, each with its own identity and contributing to the diversity of this department. Many historical figures, such as Gaston Bachelard in Bar-sur-Aube or Chrétien de Troyes, are among the local prides. In the 19th century, Aube, the epicenter of the cooperative movement with the creation of the first consumer cooperative by Charles Gide in Troyes, was able to take advantage of its strategic position in the region. The old maps of the Aube reflect this abundant era and constitute a true testimony of a bygone era. They allow us to understand the changes in borders, the growth of cities and cultural transformations, making them a valuable tool for anyone wishing to understand and appreciate the history of Aube.Professional in the sale (and passion) of historical and geographical engravings, I will ship your purchase with the greatest care as I myself would like to receive it.
