プールランのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

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.

When I arrived in Parly, I immediately noticed the church. The octagonal church tower, which looks a bit too short, impresses with the finest stone carving. The lavishly designed windows in the area of the bells are richly decorated. If you then walk around the otherwise rather small and squat church, the next surprise comes: a portal that you otherwise only see on cathedrals. Quadruple chiseled columns with portal arches.

The Saint-Sébastien church, although remodeled in the 15th century, is an important testimony of Romanesque art in Puisaye with its octagonal bell tower of Cluniac inspiration and its sculpted portal restored in 2002, the ocher-veined stone before weakened the sumptuous decorations.
