Joncreuil is a charming village of the Aube. The walk in the village follows a street marked by these beautiful and large half-timbered houses. Old houses show the meticulous work of wood and mud. The very advanced roof of the houses protected the walls from the aggressions of the rain, moreover the inhabitants hung up the boots of beans that dried in the air. The word colombage comes from a beam in the construction, called dove.
The houses in ruins and stripped, allow to admire the meticulous work of the walls, the mud, the sand pits...
Immense barns recall the time when hay and straw filled them up to the roof, for animals, cows, and horses fed hay in the winter, and the straw served as litter. The end of the walk allows to admire the countryside with its fields as far as the eye can see while the forest in the distance hides the horizon. It is possible that a buzzard astonishes you by the circles that it realizes, wait a little, if it plunges in a surprising way, it is that a mulot will serve him of meals. The buzzard is a raptor that is responsible for ridding the fields of pests.
