I come from a small village near Provins in Seine-et-Marne. After two years of work-study studies in the field of tourism, I decided after obtaining my diploma to move into working life. And here I am, since December 1, 2017, welcoming you to the Puisaye-Forterre Tourist Office to share my passion with you.

I used to come to Morvan every year to discover the region and its surroundings. That’s how I discovered Puisaye! My first visit was the castle of Guedelon about ten years ago. Since then, I have continued to discover places, each more fantastic than the last, such as the castle of Saint-Fargeau with its historic spectacle in July-August, the Aubigny underground quarry, the Sept-Ecluses of Rogny and the Nivernais canal which is pleasant for walks and bike rides.

Puisaye-Forterre, Country of Colette, but not only that!

Indeed, Puisaye-Forterre is not only focused on Guedelon et Colette.

It is also other activities like the different museums present in the territory, the thrilling activities, the gardens and the hiking which allow you to discover the different landscapes ranging from fields as far as the eye can see to rolling meadows where cattle graze. There are also the treasures that I discovered recently like the murals of the church of Moutiers and the pottery of the Building. La Puisaye is an artistic and cultural territory, there is something for all tastes and all ages.

It is a real pleasure to be in this beautiful region, so different from Seine-et-Marne, where the landscapes give us the impression of being completely elsewhere.

If you come to the Tourist Office, I will make you want to visit all these places. As I wanted to do, and above all don't forget thatin Burgundy, Puisaye has genius!
