Toucy, historic town twinned with Kusel (Germany) and birthplace of Pierre Larousse. Historic passage of Joan of Arc in the city. Visible old half-timbered houses and historic shops. With its Saturday market, Best Market in France 2019. Away from the city center, you will find an industrial zone with various brands.

Château de la Motte-Mitton in Toucy During the 100 Years' War, Toucy was burned and razed (1423). In the 16th century, a new castle was built outside the walls by Aymard de Prie at a place called Motte Miton. The latter was replaced in the 18th century by the current castle attributed to the Marquis de la Perratière (long main building framed on one side by round towers topped with lanterns and on the other by square pavilions). You can still see the remains of the 16th century building (bases of the towers). https://www.guide-tourisme-france.com/VISIT/chateau-motte-mitton--toucy-17692.htm The castle cannot be visited. But there are other properties to admire along the avenue.

The Republic Square with its statue in honor of Larousse on the edge of the old city fortifications offers nice places to stop, as Gerhard has already written. We had a drink in a bistro there. The friendly landlord didn't mind that we bought something to eat from the bakery next door. We would have liked to have experienced the market, but it only takes place on Saturdays.
