Treasure of Vix

Highlight • Historical Site

The Treasure of Vix is one of the most magnificent Celtic princely treasures (in this case, it is a princess) in the world. It was discovered in 1953 at the foot of Mont Lassois, in the town of Vix, very close to Chatillon-sur-Seine. The very beautiful Pays Chatillonais museum now houses the famous vase of Vix, and the gold tiara of the Lady of Vix. The vase is very impressive: it is 1.64 meters high, 1.29 meters wide and weighs over 200 kilograms. It could hold over a thousand liters of wine. Celtic princes and princesses of the late Iron Age (6th century BC) traded pewter with Mediterranean populations. They received sumptuous gifts in exchange.

Restaurant l'Union

Highlight • Other

A break in Essoyes must lead to L'Union. Delicious food, cheap drinks and friendly waiters. Picture-perfect France. Right next to the church.

Château de Ricey-Bas

Highlight • Other

Between Champagne and Burgundy, in the Laignes valley and in the heart of Riceys-Bas, the Château de Ricey-Bas, with its French gardens and its park of more than twenty-five hectares, is part of the great History of France since Robert 1st, Lord of Riceys who established the first foundations in 1086…

Surrounded by two arms of the Laignes, the Château de Ricey-Bas, classified as a Historic Monument, is one of the oldest in the region. Transformed by successive families, it continues to be reborn to become today a place of life that can be discovered with complete simplicity.

Les Riceys

Highlight • Settlement

Decorated with beautiful houses and surrounded by vineyards, life is good in Les Riceys. The village has many wineries that offer champagne tastings and cellar tours. It prides itself on being the only wine-growing commune in the region to have the three Champagne controlled appellations. If you want to taste champagne, the place is very suitable.
