Streets squares and districts to visit Poligny

This is one of the city's jewels. This courtyard surrounded by 19 arcades houses what remains of a former convent founded in the th century by wealthy young girls. Imagine that this building was at the centre of an area that occupied the whole area at that time. There are no more nuns on these walls since the Revolution: The convent was divided into private apartments. But you can still admire the statue of the Virgin, the only remnant of the religious past of the places.
