Article
View from the Cure and the Accolay Canal in Accolay Accolay ( French pronunciation: [akɔlɛ]) is a former commune in the Yonne department in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in north-central France. On 1 January 2017, it was merged with Cravant into the new commune of Deux Rivières.
The commune is bordered by the Cure River and the Nivernais Canal, just beside it. The canal junction was built in the 19th century to transport wood by timber rafting from the Morvan forests to Paris.
