The city, which is the birthplace of Georges-Louis Leclerc, Count of Buffon, is built on a hillside dominated by the vast Park created in the 18th century by this notable local figure.

Less than 30 km from the town, you can visit the Abbey of Fontenay, a UNESCO world heritage site, Bussy-Rabutin castle, the MuséoParc Alésia archaeological museum, the fortified town Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, voted one of France’s Most Beautiful Villages, Semur-en-Auxois, a medieval town that dresses up every year to celebrate Les Fêtes de la Bague (Festival of the Ring).

Slightly further away, Burgundy's Route des Grands Crus, which is celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2017 and the Climats du vignoble de Bourgogne, Dijon, Beaune and its Hospices, the beautiful nature in Morvan regional nature reserve...
