Locality (close to: Cluny)

Burgundy considers itself the heart of France, a prosperous region with world-renowned wine, earthy but excellent cuisine and magnificent architecture. Franche-Comté to the east combines gentle farmland with lofty alpine forests.
Under the Dukes of Valois, Burgundy was France's most powerful rival, with territory extending well beyond its present boundaries. By the 16th century, however, the duchy was ruled by governors appointed by the French king, but it till managed to keep its privileges and traditions. Once a part of Burgundy, Franche-Comté - the Free Country - struggled to remain independent of the French Crown and was a province of the Holy Roman Empire until annexed by Louis XIV in 1674.

Burgundy is a wealthy region, a center of medieval religious faith that produced Romanesque masterpieces at Vézelay, Fontenay and Cluny. Dijon is a splendid city, filled with the palaces of the old Burgundian nobility and a collection of great paintings and sculptures in the Musée des Beaux Arts. The vineyards of the Côte d'Or, the Côte de Beaune and Chablis yield some of the world's most venerated wines.

A longtime a favorite destination of European travelers, Burgundy is quickly becoming "discovered" by American tourists who are eager to leave the hustle-bustle of Paris behind them and experience the pleasures of Eastern France: storybook villages, winding wine roads, fascinating museums, splendid cathedrals and a wealth of outdoor activities. With such an exceptional geographic location, Burgundy has been called the meeting place of civilizations. Right in the heart of Europe, this area still bears the marks of a glorious and turbulent past that has great appeal for tourists.
