Museums & Art Galleries

Bourgogne-Franche-Comté’s cultural landscape spans centuries of history, from the 12th-century Cistercian Abbey of Fontenay to the 14th-century Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy. This collection highlights specialized institutions including the Museum of Time in Besançon, housed in the Renaissance Palais Granvelle, and the Château de Savigny-lès-Beaune, which uniquely pairs a historic vineyard with an extensive aviation collection. Literary heritage is preserved at the birthplaces of Colette and Victor Hugo, while the Dijon Museum of Fine Arts offers one of France’s oldest art collections.
