Bourg de l'Aube, in the Grand Est region, Estissac takes place about twenty kilometers from Troyes, at the confluence of the Vallee and the streams of Bétrot and Ancre.

Formerly crossed by a Roman road, the town of Estissac takes its current name in 1758 on the will of the Duke of Rochefoucault, in memory of a land he owned in the Perigord. Formerly named Saint-Liébault, it has developed over the centuries an important paper business, including the presence of a mill.

Today, Estissac still attracts many visitors who come to discover the region thanks to its architectural and natural heritage, but also for its proximity to some of the most beautiful tourist sites in the area like Troyes and its historic center.

Things to see and do

Built in the 13th century, the church Saint-Liébault was strongly modified and enlarged during the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries. It is possible to admire a polychrome marble altar of the eighteenth century with a painting of Saint Loup and Attila.

The Saint-Loup church of Thuisy, listed as a Historical Monument, has a beautiful 18th century nave, as well as stained glass windows classified as an object.

While strolling in the commune, you will be able to appreciate the castle of Saint-Liébault, the market of XVIIe century which formerly hosted the grain market, or the mill of the eighteenth century renovated in the 1990s and now hosting a salmon farm that it is possible to visit.
