Chateau de Chateauneuf-en-Auxois

Reviewed By WilsR77 - Charlottesville, United States

I have always seen this castle lurking off to the side of the road on our drive down into the heart of Burgundy Country from Paris and this year I finally decided to make a day trip of visiting. We came in the off season so most everything was closed except for the castle itself but the town was extremely charming and beautiful and the castle was an excellent visit. A great half day for folks who love exploring history and beauty.

Chateau de Fontaine-Francaise

En 1754, François Boullioud de Saint-Julien, receveur général du clergé de France, fit construire sur l'emplacement de l'ancienne forteresse qui avait vu la célèbre victoire du roi Henri IV sur les espagnols le 5 juin 1595, l'actuel château de Fontaine-Française. Entouré d'un parc composé de près de 400 tilleuls taillés en portique et d'ifs en boule, le château classé monument historique présente sur le plan ouest un monumental corps de logis classique se réfléchissant dans une vaste pièce d'eau. Sur la façade d'entrée, les deux ailes en retour, les balcons et les mascarons qui ornent les fenêtres adoucissent la solennité de l'édifice.

My husband and I visited the tasting room on the recommendation from several other travelers and were very pleased. We wanted whites and we were served some of the best on the trip! If you are lucky you will have Yannick be your host! Call ahead to confirm they are available. You can book a tour of the cellars or just a tasting. Our tasting of four whites was free - they gave a white Grand Cru that we were lucky enough to try and it was the BEST Chardonnay I’ve ever tasted.
