About 7 km from the port at Venarey-les-Laumes, past the town of Alesia St Reine where the battle was held, is the Chateau of Bussy Rabutin.

We had left the croaking of frogs at the canal and the call of the Sandpipers and cycled into the countryside again. The village setting is delightful. Although owned by the state, is has a friendly well cared for feeling.
On the way we saw a sign by the side of the road advertising Ice Creams at the place outside the Chateau. Further on we saw a sign for Auberge at Bussy Rabutin. At the base of the hill leading up to the Chateau there was another sign Produits Regionaux, and Laine Mohair du Rabutin. what a lot of interesting a delicious things are up there we thought.
