The church of Pont sur Yonne can be said to be entirely Gothic and certainly one of the oldest Gothic churches in France, just as the cathedral of SENS, 10km from Pont, is the first Gothic cathedral ever built in France. They can both be dated to the same period of construction, namely the end of the 12th century, between 1162 and 1169.
