Verdun is a town of 18,000 inhabitants in the Meuse, marked by the 1916 battle that lasted 300 days. The Memorial de Verdun, inaugurated in 1967 and fully renovated in 2016, tells this history across 2,000 m2. The Citadelle souterraine, built by Vauban in the 17th century, offers a tour through 7 km of underground galleries. The town also serves as an administrative and commercial centre for northern Meuse, with a fabric of SMEs in agrifood, logistics and services. Seminar options on site are limited to a few hotels and municipal halls. Chateau de Morey sits 45 km from Verdun, a 45-minute drive, in the Natagne valley. This 16th-century estate, built on the ruins of a Templar convent, can be fully privatised for your corporate seminar. Modular rooms accommodate up to 40 participants in theatre, U-shape, cluster or round table configurations. HD audiovisual equipment and fibre Wi-Fi cover your technical needs. The one-hectare park with century-old trees provides a natural setting for team building activities. Five guest rooms allow residential accommodation on site. The outdoor pool and secure parking complete the facilities.
Seminars near you Verdun
Organising a seminar in Verdun usually means a meeting room in one of the few city-centre hotels or a municipal facility. Capacity is limited, outdoor spaces are absent and technical equipment is basic. Chateau de Morey offers an alternative 45 minutes away by road. The entire estate is privatised for your company: no other group shares the premises. Modular rooms switch from plenary setup to breakout workshops without relocation. HD audiovisual and fibre Wi-Fi are built into every space. The one-hectare park hosts team building activities on natural ground. Residential accommodation in guest rooms eliminates shuttles between the seminar and the hotel. Five centuries of history form the backdrop to discussions. The dedicated coordinator handles every detail in advance. Combining a seminar at the chateau with a visit to the Verdun Memorial creates a programme that is both professional and meaningful.
Why choose us
Seminar and Memorial: a meaningful programme
Combine your seminar at the chateau with a visit to the Verdun Memorial or the underground Citadelle. This programme adds a historical and human dimension to work sessions.
Fully privatised estate
Your company has exclusive use of the entire chateau, the one-hectare park and the outbuildings. No outside group shares the spaces during your seminar. Confidentiality is complete.
Modular rooms and fibre Wi-Fi
Up to 40 participants in theatre, U-shape, cluster or round table. HD projector and fibre Wi-Fi built in. A level of technical equipment that Verdun venues cannot match.
One-hectare park and Templar ruins
Century-old trees and the Templar convent ruins provide a natural setting for team building activities. Breaks and cohesion activities take place outdoors, between work sessions.
Residential accommodation and dedicated coordinator
Five guest rooms in the chateau, outdoor pool, secure parking for cars and minibuses. A dedicated coordinator manages preparation, logistics and follow-up for your seminar.
Your colleagues leave Verdun behind, along with the battlefield hills, the underground Citadelle and the quiet streets of the town centre. The road crosses the Meuse countryside for forty-five minutes. Forests and stone villages follow one another. The Renaissance facade of Chateau de Morey appears at the end of a drive lined with century-old trees. The gate closes. Secure parking receives the group. The coordinator guides everyone to the plenary room where the HD audiovisual system and fibre Wi-Fi are already in place. The morning progresses through presentations and discussions, punctuated by a coffee break in the park beneath century-old trees. Lunch is served in the reception room with antique wood panelling by a partner caterer. In the afternoon, breakout groups spread across chateau rooms and vaulted cellars for workshops. A team building activity in the park fills the end of the day, with the Templar ruins as the setting. Dinner brings the group together in a backdrop shaped by five centuries of history. Those staying overnight return to their rooms in the chateau. The next day, breakfast precedes the resumption of work, a visit to the Verdun Memorial or the drive back to the Meuse.
Companies from Verdun and the Meuse seeking a privatised venue for residential seminars, training days, team building workshops or strategic meetings. Suited for groups of up to 40 participants with on-site accommodation, 45 minutes from Verdun. Complementary programme possible with the Verdun Memorial.

Verdun
Meuse, Lorraine
A city of remembrance known worldwide, Verdun embodies the memory of the Great War. The battlefields, Douaumont Ossuary, and Verdun Memorial bear emotional testimony to history. But Verdun is also a medieval city with rich heritage: Romanesque cathedral, underground citadel, and dragées renowned since the 13th century.

Verdun
The Memorial de Verdun is the main site of remembrance for the 1916 battle. Inaugurated in 1967 at the initiative of veterans and fully renovated in 2016, it traces the 300 days of fighting that caused over 700,000 casualties across 2,000 m2. The Citadelle souterraine, built by Vauban in the 17th century and enlarged before 1914, offers a tour through 7 km of galleries where 10,000 soldiers could be housed simultaneously. The Douaumont Ossuary, visible from the battlefield, contains the remains of 130,000 unidentified soldiers. For a seminar at Chateau de Morey, these sites offer a complementary programme that gives meaning to team discussions and reflections. A guided tour of the Memorial can precede or follow work sessions at the chateau.
