Rogny les Sept Ecluses

140 km south-east of Paris and 30 km south of Montargis, Rogny les Sept Ecluses is one of the gates to the Puisaye. It will lead you to the wonders of this picturesque region (Pond, Castle, Site, Crafts, Gastronomy), and to the Poitiers of the Puisaye Nivernaise.

Village of 740 inhabitants, Rogny les Sept Ecluses is one of the tourist attractions of which Puisaye can be proud, with its curious work from which it takes its name.

The seven locks of Rogny
Built at the beginning of the 17th century, this civil engineering work ofHenry IV and Sully, which mobilized 12,000 workers, aimed to connect the Mediterranean and the Atlantic through a network of canals. The difference in level between the Loire and the Seine has imposed a juxtaposition of seven locks. This system has been stopped since the end of the 19th century, replaced by separate locks and a deviated route.

Every summer, a famous fireworks display takes place in Rogny-les-sept-écluses. The commune then sees its population multiplied by 100! This show takes advantage of the famous locks and plays with the reflections of the canal to provide a technically and artistically impressive event.
