The remains of the old bridge are the remains of an old stone bridge built under Louis XIV and partially destroyed during the wars of 1814 and 1940. You can admire the three arches which still stand over the Yonne, as well as the aqueduct de la Vanne which is nearby and which was also dynamited by the French army in 1940.
