Givet is a town in the Ardennes (département) of France very close to the Belgian border. It lies on the river Meuse where Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, built the fort of Charlemont.


The town's history claims that Saint Hubert lived there in 720 and performed a miracle. The town has changed hands several times since Roman times before becoming part of France in 1678, and at later times was invaded by Russians and Germans.
