French President Emmanuel Macron gave a warm sendoff to Germany's outgoing Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday, praising her for helping keep Europe during times of crisis.

Rather than a state dinner at the Elysee Palace in Paris, Macron opted for a more rustic French experience in the heart of France's Burgundy wine-growing region.

Macron thanked Merkel for showing patience since he became president and teaching him lessons along the way, as he presented her with the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor — France's highest accolade.

"Since you have become chancellor, France has learned to know you and to love you," he said, presenting the award.
