Roll my hen!!!

Beautiful church in the village of Dixant, dating from the 9th century. Two additional bays were built in the 13th century with heads of figures on the capitals.

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.

Good news: the Migennes Esnon section of the Burgundy canal, stony and not very passable, has just been completed on the other bank by a magnificent section of perfectly asphalted cycle route! Much easier to go from Migennes (SNCF station) to BRIENON

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!

The Burgundy Canal, which begins at Migennes, linked the Seine basin to that of the Rhône via the Saône. The section between Migennes and Tonnerre is quite pleasant and allows you to visit many small towns. Be careful of the poor surfacing at the beginning of the route... Brienon is an interesting stopover: old port, mills, Renaissance church, castle, very beautiful 18th century wash house. Swimming, camping...

Nice for a break.

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.
