Château de la Motte-Mitton in Toucy During the 100 Years' War, Toucy was burned and razed (1423). In the 16th century, a new castle was built outside the walls by Aymard de Prie at a place called Motte Miton. The latter was replaced in the 18th century by the current castle attributed to the Marquis de la Perratière (long main building framed on one side by round towers topped with lanterns and on the other by square pavilions). You can still see the remains of the 16th century building (bases of the towers). https://www.guide-tourisme-france.com/VISIT/chateau-motte-mitton--toucy-17692.htm The castle cannot be visited. But there are other properties to admire along the avenue.

The Republic Square with its statue in honor of Larousse on the edge of the old city fortifications offers nice places to stop, as Gerhard has already written. We had a drink in a bistro there. The friendly landlord didn't mind that we bought something to eat from the bakery next door. We would have liked to have experienced the market, but it only takes place on Saturdays.

Between the church and the Republic Square you will find a small park with the remains of the city wall.

The town of Toucy has very ancient origins. The region was in fact associated with the exploitation of iron during the Celtic period and until around the 3rd century. Toucy then belonged to the family of Germain, bishop of Auxerre (418-448), who donated it to his church. At the beginning of the 12th century, fortifications and a chapel were built, the latter being the only one preserved entirely in elevation and included in the current church. This is a Romanesque room. It is also on the remains of the ramparts from the beginning of the 12th century that the church leans. The enclosure was completely retaken around 1170. Its remains are still visible in the city. The location of Toucy made it a long-time source of discord between the Duchy of Burgundy and the Kingdom of France, particularly during the Hundred Years' War. In 1423, the city was taken and destroyed by Burgundian troops, during the time of Philip the Good. The old church, which dated from the 13th century, was ravaged on this occasion, but it was rebuilt shortly after and appropriate means were put in place to defend it. This reconstruction took place between 1445 and 1522. At the apse, we can see two fortified towers (mid-15th century): the "Bishops' Tower", equipped with gunboats and also the most impressive, as well as the "Saint-Michel Tower" are connected by a walkway which only received battlements at the end of the 19th century during a rather drastic restoration of the monument. The nave dates from the 16th century. Not far from the church, below, on the Market Square, you can see a beautiful brick and half-timbered house (16th century). https://bourgognemedievale.com/departement-et-pays/yonne/pays-puisaye-forterre/toucy/

The Canada goose and the reed warbler are mentioned on signs here as inhabitants of the reeds on a beautiful lake. You can walk around the lake. You will find some places to rest. The path on the old railway line is also very nice, starting here at the train station and leading over a wide arc around the city to the hill in the forest.

The path on the former railway line is awesome. Here a stream is crossed on the historic bridge. Across a meadow you come to the stream and there you will find an information board about its important task for the ecology and plant diversity here.

The Notre-Dame church, in flamboyant Gothic style, was built in the 15th and 16th centuries by the Ulmes and Beaujeu families, entirely vaulted. Note: a chill. It is in a fairly elegant ogival style, with three naves, from the 16th century. Its length in work is 44.40 m; its nave width of 13.35 m; the width of the sanctuary is 6.66 m; the general height of the vault, 11.90 m. Thirteen stained glass windows, representing scenes from the Old and New Testaments, or saints (including Saint Nicholas and Saint Edward the Confessor), are arranged around the main altar.

A very large church for this small town, which only has around 600 inhabitants. Unfortunately the church was locked. At the back I saw smashed, painted glass windows. If you look halfway up the tower, you can see empty niches where the figures of saints are missing.

Pierre Larousse was born in Toucy. Every child knows him. His green, thick dictionary of the French language is famous. His monument is located in the middle of the Place de la République. A nice square with 2 cafes and 2 restaurants. On one side you can see medieval city walls. Every Saturday there is a large food market between this square and the church with mostly regional products.

A 12th-century chapel was all that remained from the devastation of the Hundred Years' War. In the 16th century the church was rebuilt in the ruins of the old castle. The result was a castle church with mighty walls, cannon embrasures and defensive towers. Please note the sculptures on the south wall. The interior is higher and more impressive than you might expect. A beautiful, balanced architecture and magnificent stained glass windows from the late 19th century. Unfortunately the church is usually closed. However, mass is at 10:30 every Sunday.
