"M. Rethel (Hot. de France; de V Europe; du Commerce), an industrial town with 6742 inhab., is partly situated on a hill to the right of the Aisne and of the Canal des Ardennes, which connects the Aisne and the Meuse and is crossed by the railway. The church of St. Nicholas is in reality formed of two churches, different both in size and style, and placed end to end. The oldest part, dating from the 13th cent., belonged originally to a priory. The Hotel Ditu and several other edifices in the town date from the 17th century."--Northern France (1889) by Baedeker |
