The church was founded in the 6th century but the abbey church was not built until later, between the 13th and 15th centuries. In Burgundian Gothic style, the portal is decorated with plant decoration made up of branches of vines. Once inside, you will be able to see wall paintings from the beginning of the 16th century representing the legend of Saint Seine in 22 paintings, the Tree of Jesse, Saint Christopher and the litanies of the Virgin.

Beautiful asphalt road crossing the Val-Suzon nature reserve. The reserve has an area of 3000 ha. The natural heritage of this area is unique, it presents a rich diversity of environments: dry lawns, scree, tufa marshes located in the heart of very diverse forest habitats - from which cliffs offer landscaped viewpoints over the valley.
