サン＝モーリス＝オー＝リシャス＝ホームズのおすすめライド

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

The village appears for the first time, under the name of Campiniacus, in a manuscript of the 9th century on the list of parishes of the great archdeaconry of Sens, therefore dependent on the archbishopric. The land belonged to the important family of Barres, then passed at the end of the 15th century to the family of Bernard who built the neighboring castle. The parish church, placed under the patronage of Saint Martin, is a fairly imposing building, built on a slope in the middle of the square. It comprises a nave flanked by side aisles and preceded by a small late lean-to porch, a transept crossing completed by an arm to the north and leaning to the south on the large bell tower, and finally a pentagonal chevet.

Lovely place for a bike ride.

A rather original historical site.

A pleasant place for a bike ride.

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.
