Tips from the Community
Excerpt from the commemorative plaque: "This washhouse, flanked by a water trough, is the work of architect Jean Caillot. It forms the heart of the village and serves as a landmark for the community hall, the town hall, the market square, the castle and its gardens. The structure was completed in 1866, and the numerous restorations, the last dating from 2010, have preserved its original appearance. It is still fed by the same spring that never runs dry." Next to the washhouse is a "never-ending" drinking water spring.

Here you can find accommodation and food. You can stay in a Gite Flottant from the beginning of April to the end of September. It's not cheap, but it's exclusive. http://www.la34s.fr

A place where the Burgundy canal and the river meet. There is an information board on the cycle path indicating nearby villages (for example from here it is 2 km to Barbirey). Along the canal is a gravel path.
