The Maison du Vitrail d'Armance offers to discover the emblematic places of Ervy-le-Châtel thanks to a visit on a digital tablet. Three existing versions: adults, children and in English. The tablets can be rented freely during the opening hours of the Maison du stained glass (1€ for the rental of a tablet).

Located between the forest massifs of Chaourçois and the Othe forest, Ervy-le-Châtel has many charms. The village takes its name from the local lord who ruled this stronghold until the 9th century: the Ervy family. The Armance flows at the foot of the town. There is also a feudal mound nearby. These are probably the ruins of the original castle.

The Burgundy Canal is 242 km long, it connects the Seine basin to the Rhône basin. Previously used for moving goods, but since the 1960s the canal has been used almost exclusively for recreational boating.

Of course, from the old stone bridge you have a beautiful view of the Armançon river. And a first look at the old town.

Hamlet on the Burgundy Canal. The Château de Percey was built in the 17th century and inhabited by a countess; it was bought in September 2021 and transformed into a gîte.

Originally a simple oratory of a pilgrim's house, it became, over time, the main church of Tonnerre. In the 11th century, the Hôtel-Dieu Notre-Dame was a modest house welcoming pilgrims on the route to Saint-Jacques. It has a small chapel dedicated to Mary. Over the centuries, the oratory grew and gained in importance. It became a cure, a parish then a deanery. It was in the 16th and 17th centuries that the monument took on the face we know with its high tower topped with the inscriptions "Jesus Maria Ave Gracia", and the initials CHC, for Charles Henri de Clermont, Count of Tonnerre and great patron.
