Course[change]
The Brenne starts in the commune of Sombernon, at an elevation of about 560 m (1,837 ft), at about 30 km (19 mi) to the west of Dijon.[3]
It flows to the northwest and joins the Armançon river between the communes Buffon and Montbard at an elevation of about 200 m (660 ft) above sea level.[4]
The Brenne flows through 1 region (Nouvelle-Aquitaine) and 1 department (Côte-d'Or). The river flows through the communes:
- Sombernon
- Aubigny-lès-Sombernon
- Grosbois-en-Montagne
- Vitteaux
- Pouillenay
- Venarey-les-Laumes
- Montbard
- Saint-Rémy
There are only 2 important tributaries, and both join the Brenne on the right side: the Oze and the Ozerain rivers.
