The church of Saint-Remi de Bel-Air is a religious monument located in the city of Charleville-Mézières, in the Grand Est region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its date of foundation or the circumstances of its construction. His name evokes Saint Remi, emblematic figure of Christian history in France, but no direct connection with the saint is mentioned in the current data.
