Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy

1 Rue Rameau, 21000 Dijon, France

One of the city’s most interesting buildings due to several reasons. Firstly, it is based on the 9th-century castle of the duke; secondly, some parts of the castle date back to the 9-18th centuries; and thirdly, the authentic interiors have also been preserved in part.

Additional information

The Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy (Palais des Ducs de Bourgogne) is a historical palace in the city of Dijon, France. It was built in the 14th and 15th centuries as the residence of the Dukes of Burgundy, one of the most powerful and influential families in Europe during the late Middle Ages.

The palace is a magnificent example of Gothic architecture, with its tall towers, pointed arches, and intricate stone carvings. The building features a large courtyard, a grand staircase, and several rooms decorated with intricate tapestries, paintings, and sculptures.

Today, the palace houses the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Dijon, one of the most important art museums in France. The museum’s collection includes works by famous artists such as Veronese, Rubens, and Van Dyck, as well as a large collection of sculptures, pottery, and other decorative arts. Visitors can also explore the palace’s historic kitchens, where meals were prepared for the dukes and their guests, and the palace’s impressive cellars, where wine was stored.
