Small village built on the banks of the Yonne, where the Nivernais canal greenway passes. There is a great little campsite if you want to stop there and above all a café, "le P'tit Bouchon". Without pretension, it has just reopened. The ideal stop, which brings a good dose of comfort, during rainy outings. The café (where food is also served) was open each time I visited. A real blessing when you know that most bistros close in small villages!

Cuncy Castle is an old fortified house built at the beginning of the 11th century. Remodeled in the 15th and 16th centuries, it was partly destroyed in 1592, when Vézelay's troops besieged Clamecy. The castle was rebuilt around 1610, on the site of the old curtain walls. A turret is added to the keep. The castle was acquired in 1846 by Edmé Goyard and his descendants are still the owners. It has an impressive porch tower. It cannot be visited and is located near the village of Villiers-sur-Yonne.
