Dijon - France

Dijon - Bourgogne - Côte-d'Or - France

Famed for it's mustard, Dijon has more to offer thanks to it's medieval sites. This province was home to the Dukes of Burgundy from the early 11th until the late 15th centuries. Dijon was a place of tremendous wealth and power and one of the great European centers of art, learning and science. The Duchy of Burgundy was a key in the transformation of medieval times toward early modern Europe. 

The Palais des ducs de Bourgogne (Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy) now houses city hall and a museum of medieval art.


There is a new tramway network in progress due to be up and running in August.
