This village is located in lush greenery in the heart of the National Forest Park, in a preserved valley. You will not find more than 40 inhabitants in the town. You will be able to admire its very beautiful castle, which is private and therefore not open to visitors.

This section of road in the Forest of Châtillon-sur-Seine, besides being extremely quiet, has the characteristic of being very straight. We sometimes have the impression that she goes so far as to get lost in infinity. In any case, you will rarely see a car passed by.

Dismantled by royal order in 1710 to serve as a stone quarry, only four of the original seven towers remain of the ruins of this castle. The stones of this important Ducal Castle were reused for the construction of an 18th century manor house, located in the village of Villaine-en-Duesmois.
