Avallon is a small town located in the Burgundy region of France. Visitors today can still see parts of an old fortress that surrounds the historic town. The old town is an area where you will find ancient monuments, cobblestone streets, and old houses made of stone and timber. While touring, be sure to make a visit to historical attractions that include St. Lazare Church (where relics of St. Lazarus are preserved), St. Martin Church, Capuchin Monastery, and Les Ursulines, which is a monastery too. Avallon also serves as the northern entrance to the sprawling Morvan Regional Natural Park, which stretches through the Burgundy region. Morvan is rich in fauna and flora and is a must-visit for outdoor and nature enthusiasts. Immerse in local culture, regional cuisine, and fine Burgundy vintages.
