Sacy: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes
The Church of Saint John the Baptist was built in the second quarter of the 12th century. Its octagonal bell tower is considered rare in the Diocese of Auxerre. The stained-glass windows depict the life of John the Baptist; the church also houses statues dating from the 12th to the 16th century as well as paintings from the 17th and 18th centuries.
Anyone who has chosen Sacy as their destination may wish to rent a holiday apartment for their stay.
Culture and History
The history of the village includes the Commanderie de Sacy, also known as Hôpital de Sacy, which is mentioned in a document from 1208. In the 14th century, it housed two members of the order: a commander and a priest who served the local church. The commandery was located by the cemetery on Rue des Fontaines and bordered the town walls; by the end of the 16th century, it lay entirely in ruins and was uninhabitable.
The historical sites of Abbaye de Reigny and Prieuré de Villiers-la-Grange, as well as the Grottes d'Arcy caves, are located around Sacy. Further afield in the region are Château de Vault-de-Lugny and the historical site of Petit-Pontigny.
