Dijon tourist information
where to go - what to see - what to doThe city of Dijon is not what you expect of such a rural department (Cote d'Or) renowned mainly for its fine wine. It is one of the most attractive cities of provincial France boasting architectural splendours dating back to the wealthy dukes of Burgundy (11th - 15th century). Chic and prosperous with a top-class university it simply bursts with cultural gems and elegant medieval and Renaissance buildings.
The central hub of old Dijon is Place Francois Rude with its cafes and bars that surround a distinctive central fountain. Not far is Le Palais des Ducs which was mainly restyled in the 17th century for parliament. In front of the palace lies the gracious Place de la Liberation flanked by sand-coloured houses and designed by Mansart one of the architects responsible for Versailles.
Dijon is also famous for its mustard which is used in many of the creamy sauces served with steak, veal and rabbit. Pain d'Epice or spicy gingerbread also originates from Dijon and indicates the strategic position of the city on the spice route.
