Avenay-Val-d'Or (in French pronounced as /avnɛ val dɔʁ/) is a commune in the Marne department, northeastern France. Located in the Vallée de la Marne, part of the Champagne region, its primary industry is viticulture.
A number of Roman remains have been discovered nearby, including a fort and medals showing Emperors Marcus Aurelius and his son Commodus. It was formerly the site of a Benedictine abbey founded by Bertha of Avenay at the end of the sixth century CE, later destroyed during the French Revolution.[2] One of the most prestigious religious institutions in Champagne, it became so popular in the 12th century that limits were placed on the number of nuns accepted.[3]
