Corbigny
Corbigny is in the Nièvre department of Burgundy, to the south-east of Clamecy.
A quiet town, it merits an amble if you are exploring this quiet part of Burgundy.
The 'highlight' of the town is Corbigny Abbey, an 18th century abbey that plays host to a music festival during the summer. Work started on the abbey in 1754 but was stopped by the revolution - since then it has had a wide number of uses from school to local cultural centre.
There is also a church dating from the 16th century - the Church of Saint-Seine - in the style known as 'flamboyant gothic' (although the church is less exciting in appearance than the name might suggest!), and pretty views along the canal.
There are also a sprinkling of attractive older houses to discover.
Corbigny styles itself as 'gateway to the Morvan Regional Parc, an unspoiled region of rolling countryside and small villages.
Above the town you can also see the 'Tuilerie de la Chapelle de Sarre' - an 18th century centre for tile production, which includes a drying room with impressive carpentry work in the roof.
You might also see the 1930's monument to those who died in an air crash at Corbigny, an imposing structure of four square columns that stretches 20 metres towards the sky.
