Nestled in a green setting, the Saint-Joseph des Anges chapel is a small, discreet building with sober architecture.

Built between 1864 and 1891, this immense chapel topped with a colossal statue of the Holy Virgin can be seen from afar. To the left of the tower, more modest, a pretty Calvary is also visible. Father Cardot, the priest of the village of Villeneuve-au-Chemin, was the initiator and mastermind of this pharaonic project. His grave is located behind the Calvary.

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.

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.

The circular hall and the Chapel... SUPERB!

Saint Florentin is a pleasant little town that has been very well restored. The two fun and informative anecdotes to take away from the city are as follows: during the Revolution, Saint-Florentin was one of the most dynamic places of Theophilanthropy, a religion which succeeded the cult of reason and the supreme being between 1798 and 1801. During the convention, the anticlerical republicans renamed Saint-Florentin and called it Mont-Armance between 8 Germinal of Year Two (March 28, 1794) and 6 Ventôse of Year Three (February 24, 1795). The city is located on the edge of the Armance and the Burgundy Canal, but also the N77. Some ingenious minds wanted to take inspiration from the legendary American route 66 in the hope of attracting tourists, and now call it route 77.

The tower rises to 43 meters. The statue of the virgin crowning the tower is 7 meters high and weighs 8,500 kilos.
