Culture
Bayel, Cité du Cristal offers guided tours at the Musée du Cristal and the Atelier du Verre. Apart from some reconstructions, the present site of the Cristalleries Royales de Champagne preserves the appearance of the Second Empire.
The Église Saint-Martin features architectural elements from the 12th century and is classified as a historic monument. The church houses a classified Vierge à l’Enfant from the 14th century, which comes from the former Prieuré de Belroy. It also contains a Pietà made of polychrome stone from the 16th century, attributed to the Maître de Chaource.
The Fête du Verre takes place every year on the last weekend of August in the large hall of the Cristallerie Royale de Champagne. Held at the former production facilities of the Cristalleries Royales de Champagne, the festival commemorates Saint-Laurent, the patron saint of glassmakers.
