France's first Gothic cathedral. A must-see monument.

A rather original historical site.

It's impossible not to stop! This half-timbered house is worth contemplating.

Numerous cafés and bakeries for a break in front of the cathedral

Thank you very much for this ride. I just took inspiration from it for my Gravel outing. It’s really very nice and pretty. Be careful, the woods above Soucy are no longer accessible.

These two bridges connect to each other and link Isle d'Yonne to the town of Sens. A beautiful view of the city and the river is offered to you by crossing one and/or the other of these two bridges.

As a memorial to the many dead, such a “MONUMENT AUX MORTS” (usually called a “cenotaph” or “war memorial” in German-speaking countries) is still very important today. “Now you, O Lord, are letting your servant depart in peace, as you said…” says the so-called “Song of Simeon” (Gospel of Luke chapter 2, verse 29). However, the people who are remembered here did not die in peace, but rather became victims of war and tyranny. This is why the term “Fallen Monument” is now sometimes used instead of the “war memorial” that was previously common in German. In the French-speaking world, however, this aspect of commemorating the dead has long been included through the commonly used term "MONUMENT AUX MORTS". Regardless of language and nation, such a monument has two important and at the same time eternal tasks: -1- To keep the memory of the suffering and horror of the war alive, -2- and to call for the lasting preservation of peace.

The town hall of Sens is a public building which houses the town hall and symbolizes the republican values of the town. It is also a historic monument that highlights the neo-Renaissance style and the artistic talents of different painters and sculptors.
