Noyers-sur-Serein: side lane buildings

            Half-timbered and stone buildings on a side lane between (and somewhat parallel to) the Place de l'Hôtel de ville and Petite rue, in the village of Noyers-sur-Serein (the Yonne département, Bourgogne / Burgundy, in eastern France), on a clear midday in mid-October (2016). The ivy climbing walls is beginning to turn gold with the autumn.

Noyers-sur-Serein, officially named Noyers, lies in the scenic valley of the river Serein and is designated as one of Les plus beaux villages de France (The Most Beautiful Villages of France). Its walled historic centre still follows a medieval pattern, with walls, towers, and gates, a longer main street, and small, sometimes winding side lanes, as well as multiple places (squares). Within it, there are numerous buildings, many half-timbered (à colombage) and others of stone; 78 of them are classified as Monuments historiques, and many date back to the 14th-16th centuries. Some of the wooden beams feature carvings in Renaissance style.

(Information partly from the official village website, last consulted 15 November 2020.)

Please note: When we visited Noyers-sur-Serein, Yonne was still described as being in the region of Bourgogne. Officially, since January 2016, it was in the newly merged administrative region Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.
