I confirm that there is a view of Joigny here

Roll my hen!!!

Armeau is a small town of more than 700 people. Here, the Yonne looks more like a pond. On a nice summer day, swans will gracefully pass by, but they are not there in winter. Please do not give them bread or any other food.

Founded in 1209 on the edge of the forest of Othe by the Order of Gramont, a religious community which had an important influence in the region, this priory was ruined by the Hundred Years War, but rebuilt at the beginning of the 16th century. The order was abolished in 1772 and the building sold for its stones during the French Revolution. Of the priory, all that remains today is the arcature of the facade as well as the ruins of the chapel and the priory dwelling. In the 19th century, there were still ribbed vaults, but they collapsed. The apse which had walls rising up to 4 m also collapsed during the winter of 1996-1997. It is a private property open to the public only on certain occasions such as heritage days. Difficult to see anything other than the facade visible from the road. For other points of view, a short film is available here: https://www.dixmont-yonne.fr/decouvrir/videos/prieure-lenfourchure/

Finally, the veloroute section of the Burgundy Canal has been completed by this well-paved section between Migennes and Esnon… it is on the other side of the canal from the old stony path. Well marked!

At the top of the hill of Villecien is a magnificent castle hidden among the trees and its high walls. The chateau was recently the home of famed cookbook writer Anne Willan, but after she retired to California in 2017, the chateau was sold.

Cross the Yonne to enjoy a breathtaking view of the arcaded bridge, the town, the church and the castle of Joigny. The view is worth the detour.
