A Decade of Dedication: Our Story

Since its founding in 2016, the ASSOCIATION DE PROMOTION DU PATRIMOINE ARNETOIS (APPA) has been devoted to preserving the unique heritage of Arnay-sous-Vitteaux. Over the past ten years, our association has grown from a small group of passionate volunteers into a cornerstone of community life, restoring monuments, beautifying public spaces, and inspiring local pride.
