Very beautiful medieval town on a hill overlooking the countryside.

Attractive village, friendly people

Avalon is a really pretty town on a hill. There is a shopping street and lots of restaurants. AND: A Shimano specialist workshop with lots of experience and great flexibility to repair racing bikes at short notice! 😀

Absolutely wonderful and secluded valley!

At the moment (May 24) there is unfortunately construction work on the central square!

The town of Avallon is home to very old monuments such as the Saint-Lazare church which is in front of you and a little further on the Clock Tower. The city center is very pleasant with its squares and fountains, and its very beautiful Maison des Sires de Domecy. By heading towards Quarré-les-Tombes you will see several islands located on the course of the Cousin, as well as remarkable old bridges spanning it. The statue of the famous Avallon frog, which you will not fail to see, was sculpted in Châtillonnais stone by Yvan Baudoin.

Magnificent site. Very nice surprise while crossing the country!

Saint Martin, to whom the church in Avallon is dedicated, is - along with Saint Nicholas - probably one of the most popular saints of all. The memorial day of the former officer in the Roman army is November 11th. On the night after the famous “parting of the coat,” when he leaves half of his army cloak to a freezing beggar, Jesus Christ appears to him in a dream. He then converted to Christianity and was later elected bishop of Tours (France) - initially against his will.
