Pimelles () is a small village nestled in the rolling hills of the department of Yonne in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, north-central France. Part of the canton of Tonnerrois, it covers 10 km2. As of 2023, the population of the commune was 61. Its present mayor is Adrien Retif.

==History== The history of Pimelles dates to at least 1035, when Raynaud, the Count of Tonnerre, gave "Pimella" to the nearby Abbey of Saint Michael. The Knights Templar Commandry of Saint Mark at Nuits-sous-Ravières established a sub-commandry in Pimelles during the 14th century. A Renaissance-era bridge can be found in the center of town.
