The origins of Château de Meursault date back to the 11th century. At that time, Robert I, Duke of Burgundy and son of King Robert II of France, granted the fief of Moulin Foulot to one of his squires. From the 12th to the 16th century, the fief frequently changed hands in the course of power struggles between the Duchy of Burgundy and the French king. In 1645, Pierre Legoux de La Berchère, Lord of La Rochepot, acquired the estate belonging to the lordship of Mazeray.

Absolutely a must see. It is not crowded and you literally have all the space to view the chateau and the other rooms with beautiful collections. A relaxing park where you walk through to see the other collections. To conclude, the castle and a small drink of coffee, wine or ice cream available. Across the street is a catering facility.

The name "Montagne de Trois Croix" already hinted at it, so it's no real surprise to find more than just a summit cross up here, which – as is common in many places – crowns the mountain peak. The central cross, standing in the middle, reminds the viewer of the execution of the incarnate Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth. According to biblical tradition, however, he was not condemned to death and crucified alone, but together with two criminals. By the way, more photos can be seen at the same highlight in the sport of 'hiking' =>> https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/3398888
