The municipality of Sainte-Menehould (4,150 inhabitants in 2018; 5,711 ha) is located in Brie, 70 km east of Reims.

Sainte-Menehould, as part of the county of Clermont-en-Argonne, belonged to the duchy of Lorraine until 1641, when the county was ceded to France; in 1648, it was granted as an appanage to Louis, the Great Condé, making it independent of the royal control.
Condé established Sainte-Menehould as his capital and fortified the town in 1652, when he was leader of the 1650-1653 civil war known as the Fronde. The military engineer Vauban worked on the fortifications as a member of Condé's regiment; he changed sides when captured by a Royalist patrol in early 1653. Condé's governor, Count of Montal surrendered the town in November 1653.
A large part of the town was destroyed in 1719 by a blaze. It was rebuilt in a remarkable style, in brick and alternating gaize, with Mansard roofs. The Town Hall's cornerstone was laid in 1730.
