Semur en Auxois is in the heart of Burgundy and is a thriving modern town as well as a rich historic site. Legend has it that it was built by Hercules on his way to Spain but the earliest written evidence of a town charter dates back to the 7th century. Ancient ramparts and 4 out of the original 18 towers remain today.
Attractions include shops, weekly market, cafes, restaurants, live performance theatres, museum, ancient ramparts, La Collegiale de Notre Dame - one of the finest 13th century Gothic churches in Burgundy, and oh don’t forget some of the loveliest countryside on earth. The town is a short, up hill walk from the cottage.
You can also go fishing, bike riding, walking, horse riding, swimming, wine tasting, to the cinema and eating out in the wonderful countryside.

The auto route is 10 Km away and Dijon is 80 Km.
