One tends to underestimate the town of Pourrain when driving from Toucy to Auxerre on the D965. This road only affects the town and does not give a favorable image of this beautiful town. The climb to the church, the church itself and the square in front of the church form a very beautiful ensemble. The village is located on a hill that dominates 3 surrounding valleys. Saint Serge Church is a very large church with a unique tower. The main tower with a large bell house and beautiful church clock is in the shape of a richly decorated keep. On the west side there is a slender tower that towers over the main tower and is equipped with shooting stocks.

The origin of the castle dates back to the 11th century, but its current appearance is mainly the result of work carried out in the 15th century. It serves as the backdrop for a historic sound and light show. Jean d'Ormesson lived there part of his childhood. The town center of St Fargeau is rich in historical monuments, with the very beautiful St Férreol church and the Clock Tower which marks the entrance to the pedestrian (and cobbled...) streets.

The “clock tower” or belfry, classified MH, is a fortified building at one of the old city gates. It is surmounted by a steeple restored in the 2000s, making an exact copy made compulsory by its very poor state of conservation. Its frame, including a succession of grooves leading to an octagonal plan, is particularly elaborate and a remarkable witness to the know-how of the time. (Source: Wikipedia)

The origins of the castle date back to the tenth century. Around 980, Heribert, the bishop of Auxerre, built a fortified hunting lodge. At the beginning of the 13th century, Jean de Toucy, a close confidant of Louis the Saint, built a pentagonal castle made of iron sandstone. His daughter married Thibaut de Bar in 1255. The House of Bar ruled the Puisaye countryside until the end of the Hundred Years' War, which drove them into bankruptcy. In 1450, the castle and lands became the property of the richest man in France at the time, Jacques Coeur. He was financier to King Charles VII of France. Shortly thereafter, Coeur was arrested and dispossessed by the Crown. In 1453, Antoine de Chabannes, a former soldier and close confidant of Joan of Arc, bought the entire property. As an enthusiastic military expert, he converted the first castle into a strong fortress. He covered the walls with a thick covering of bricks and built 6 massive and contemporary fortified towers at all corners.
