Saint Nicholas Gate

Highlight • Historical Site

The old fortified gate with drawbridge, known as the Porte du Bourgneuf, saw the arrival of many important figures: Henry II, accompanied by Catherine de Medici, was received by the canons in 1548 under a freshly painted triumphal arch with the sound of tambourines; Charles IX, accompanied by the Queen Mother, stayed briefly in 1594 and the gate was decorated again when Louis XIII entered in 1629 on his way to the Alps and Queen Anne of Austria the following year. The most pompous entry, however, was that of Louis XIV and the Queen on 19 and 20 November 1658, when the canon was fired.

Since 1770, the new grand gate, which Mayor Maufoux wanted to bring the city up to date and which was designed by the architect Lenoir Le Romain from Dijon, has welcomed visitors from the north.

Château de Meursault and Fountain

Highlight • Castle

The origins of Château de Meursault date back to the 11th century. At that time, Robert I, Duke of Burgundy and son of King Robert II of France, granted the fief of Moulin Foulot to one of his squires. From the 12th to the 16th century, the fief frequently changed hands in the course of power struggles between the Duchy of Burgundy and the French king. In 1645, Pierre Legoux de La Berchère, Lord of La Rochepot, acquired the estate belonging to the lordship of Mazeray.
