Trévilly was a small village, also known as a commune, located in the central part of France. It was part of the Yonne department, which is a region in France called Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.
On January 1, 2019, Trévilly joined with other nearby villages to form a new, larger commune called Guillon-Terre-Plaine. This means Trévilly is no longer a separate commune on its own.
