Saint-Étienne Cathedral of Auxerre

Highlight • Religious Site

Impressive cathedral that dominates the cityscape of Auxerre together with the Abbaye Saint-Germain.
You can visit the cathedral for free, which you should definitely do. The sight of these incredibly high Gothic vaults is a lasting experience.
If you want to visit the crypt, you have to pay an entrance fee of 3.50 euros.
The crypt was built between 1023 and 1035 and dates from the Romanesque cathedral, which was destroyed in 1215.
The current cathedral was built on the site of the old Romanesque cathedral. The different construction phases stretched from the 13th century to the 16th century.

Clock Tower

Highlight • Other

The original tower, also called Tour Gaillarde, was part of a Gallo-Roman fortification and was often restored, expanded and elevated over the centuries. A city gate was built based on this tower in 1483, which also housed a prison.
There is a small market on the square in front of the tower, at least on Saturdays, where you can buy regional food. A sight that stands out from the many buildings in the city that are worth seeing.

Saint Peter's Church of Auxerre

Highlight • Religious Site

This church was damaged by the Saracens in the 13th century. The restoration and completion did not take place until 1658.
The church is open during the day. One should go far ahead to admire the enormous height of the dome.

Lavoir de Maulny

Highlight • Other

This wash house in Chevannes once served as a place to rinse washed laundry (several hundred years ago). The whole town used it at the time. It is now more of a historical monument and is no longer in use.

Perreuse Old Linden Tree and Historic Village

Highlight • Settlement

Standing at an altitude of 256m, the village of Perreuse, which now has only 65 inhabitants, drew its wealth from the vineyards planted on its hillsides, a vineyard known since Roman times.
The village has many very old houses dating back to the 16th century. It is also distinguished by a remarkable tree, an old lime tree planted under Henri IV on the site of a fortified castle which has now disappeared. The small church is also remarkable.
