Tonnerre

The town of Tonnerre has a population of 6500 and offers all the commodities.

It is one of the few places along the canal where vineyards are found. Epineuil with Pinot noir. Tonnerre et de Molosmes, white chardonnay. You're also very close to the vineyards of Chablis; from the canal port of Tonnerre to Chablis town centre, it is only 17km.

In the old town centre you can visit the mysterious water source called "La Fosse Dionne", the source is the second deepest in France. The continual supply of water has intrigued people for many years and is well worth a visit. In 1758 a washhouse (Lavoire) was constructed around the source.
