Auxerre

Cobblestone streets and a variety of cultural assets make the capital of north-west Burgundy an attractive cultural center with plenty of historical flair. Not far from the vineyards of Chablis, you will find a destination here that you can explore and enjoy to the fullest. The trading town on the Yonne has been known as a place of pilgrimage since the early Middle Ages and the frescoes hidden in the crypt are considered to be the oldest in France.
