The Charm of Châtillon-sur-Seine in Summer

Châtillon-sur-Seine, a sub-prefecture nestled in the upper Seine valley, is a town with a rich heritage. The Musée du Pays Châtillonnais houses the fabulous Vase of Vix, while the Source de la Douix, a Vauclusian resurgence with turquoise waters, is a remarkable natural site. The Saint-Vorles church, the remains of the medieval castle, and the developed banks of the Seine complete this heritage tableau. The August 15th car boot sale is the perfect opportunity to combine bargain hunting with a tourist visit.

The Châtillonnais Region, a Land of Rural Flea Markets

The north of Côte-d'Or, on the borders of Burgundy and Champagne, is a rural area where flea markets and car boot sales punctuate the summer. The Châtillon-sur-Seine municipal car boot sale attracts bargain hunters from all over the region, who come to enjoy the pleasant setting of the town hall garden and the relaxed atmosphere of this August 15th holiday.
