Strolling through the streets of old Dijon

Even if the cycle paths have multiplied in Dijon with the creation of the « Vélodi » system, the best way to discover the old town of Dijon, dominated by the tall silhouette of the Philippe-le-Bon tower, is to go there on foot - many tiny streets are pedestrian creating a quiet, relaxing atmosphere where you can stop and admire the historical buildings at your own pace. From the Palace of the Dukes, whose museum has been completely renovated, several routes along rue Verrerie and rue des Forges allow you to discover the rich historical heritage of the city of the dukes as evidenced by the Hôtel de Vogüe, the Sainte-Bénigne cathedral, Place François-Rude or the Museum of Fine Arts. The former palace of the Dukes of Burgundy houses magnificent Gothic rooms where you can admire works by Titian, Rembrandt or more contemporary painters like Pissaro, Manet or Sisley.
