Discover the neighbour to the Château, that of Châteauneuf-en-Auxois. On a hill, its impressive silhouette has reigned over the medieval village since 1175 A.D. You can also visit the village of Sainte Sabine, once called Lassey, with a church dedicated to Saint Martin. Its celebration of Saint Sabine began in the 12th century, always honoured twice a year.  

Then pay a visit to the Abbey of Fontenay (1118 A.D.), founded by Saint Bernard de Clairvaux, a masterpiece of Romanesque art. After enjoying the serenity of a spiritual building, set off for the 12th-C. Château de Bussy-Rabutin, famous for its collection of portraits of ladies said to have been loved by Roger Bussy-Rabutin…

Then on to  Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, a town built around a Benedictine abbey (719 A.D.). Its ramparts, fortified gates, narrow cobbled streets, house and mansions hold many secrets... Autun is also well worth a detour. Its renown can be attributed to its Roman builder, Emperor Augustus. Dijon then proposes a rich heritage: a beautiful city centre, spectacular churches, half-timbered houses and the Dukes' Palace, now home to the Fine Arts Museum. Beaune offers prestigious vineyards, majestic narrow streets and almshouses. Retracing history, the MuséoParc Alésia focuses on the famous battle between Julius Caesar and Vercingetorix! Finally, the Château de Commarin is a must-see with its harmonious facades. Truly splendid!
