Église Saint-Germain

Chemin du fort, 89110 Poilly-sur-Tholon

Finally, the tower, destroyed during the Wars of Religion, was rebuilt into a beautiful regular apparatus and rises today to 52 m, and in 1690 a chapel of funerary character was built on the north flank by Zacharie Thierrat, first lord of Poilly.
