Ramerupt

Champagne (France)

Ramerupt, a village in the Champagne region of northern France, was a center of Tosafist Torah scholarship in the twelfth century. Rabbi Jacob ben Meir (Rabbeinu Tam), a grandson of Rashi and the leading Tosafist of his generation, lived in Ramerupt and ran his yeshiva there, to which scholars traveled from afar; his brother Rabbi Samuel ben Meir (the Rashbam) was also associated with the town.
