Day trip to Joigny

Discover the pearls of Joigny for a few hours in the heart of Burgundy

Admire the tree house

In the heart of the town centre, you will surely see this house from afar. Its particularity: its imposing half-timbered facade from the 16th century.

This historic monument attracts the eye and then the curiosity of travellers passing through Joigny.

But what do the wooden posts represent? They represent the family tree of Christ.

There are only three houses in France with a tree of Jesse. So you have an incredible chance to meet him.

📍 Address: Rue Gabriel Cortel, 89300 Joigny.

Meet the wine estates of Joigny

When coming to experience your holiday in Burgundy, don't miss out on the history of the Joigny vineyards.

Both the town's heritage and its architecture are influenced by wine.

Between the vineyards and the river, Joigny is full of estates where you can taste the local wine.

The specialities have always been :

• pinot gris
• pinot noir
• chardonnay.

The appellations vary according to their location on the forty or so hectares of vineyards in the region.

 

Take in the sights at the Saint-Thibault Church in Joigny

The old town of Joigny awaits you to discover its marvel: the Saint-Thibault church. In Gothic style, admire the interior vaults, the organ and the stained glass windows.

Then get your trainers ready to climb to the top of the bell tower.

This is where the show goes on, with a 360 degree panoramic view of the roofs of Joigny and the surrounding countryside.

On your way out, be sure to take a look at the north door. Sculptures adorn this door and show the beauty of the period details.
