Amazing clock tower. According to the info sign the 'twin towers' are from the 12th C and the Belfry was added at the end of the 15th C. So a very historic spot. The small square in front of the tower is peaceful and hassle-free Use one of the many clean public benches as a base to enjoy your picnic. Afterwards go to the small cafe on the corner, order and pay for your coffee and they will bring it out to your table (a slight upgrade from the bench!). I discreetly ate a clafoutis de cerise with the coffee, and no-one objected.

Astounding small sculpture park which you can freely wander round. Nice clean bench at the top, from which you can enjoy the view over the landscape. Munch your snack and sup your drink and revel in having got to the high-point of this tour.

Classified among the remarkable trees of France by the association "ARBRES", it is recognized as one of the oldest in metropolitan France, with an estimated dating between 1400 and 1800 years. Difficult to know with more precision because it is hollow. You can easily enter it for ten people, you will even see it house the crib at Christmas. Initially venerated as a pagan symbol of the passage from life to death, this funerary yew could have seen Clovis, it especially saw an imposing church erected at its foot. It was spared by the Revolution (testimonials from that time would report that he saved the church and the village from lightning more than once) and suffered significant damage in August 1944 when the cemetery was the site of a terrible tank battle which set fire to and felled the church. The solidarity at the end of the war (local and also more distant coming from Pontvallain, 72) allowed the reconstruction of the village; from these treatments the yew was able to start afresh. It is nonetheless threatened by a water stress that is clearly visible today. Reliable witness to a long and rich past, the millennial yew tree of Estry questions us about what we are preparing to show it for the centuries to come. As of today, he is alerting us to the climate challenge.
