Tour de Savigny-le-Sec, entre ville et pleine nature

Savigny-le-Sec is a charming village between town and country. Life is concentrated around a beautiful square, shaded by lime trees, where you can admire typical limestone buildings.

As its name suggests, the village has no natural water source. Yet it is home to a remarkable biodiversity. Every year, some one hundred species of bird are observed in the area. The Inule des Montagnes, a protected flower, also delights nature-lovers at the "Pelouses calcaires d?Epagny et de Savigny-le-Sec" site (managed by the Conservatoire d?Espaces Naturels de Bourgogne). During your walk, you may find mushrooms and spot wild animals (hares, roe deer, hinds, stags, etc.).
