Ranked among the "Most Beautiful Villages of France", labeled "Village Fleuri" and <Station Verte", CHÂTEAUNEUF, a picturesque medieval village perched on its rocky outcrop, watches over its washhouses, fountains, listed houses, private gardens, chapels and its castle. The Morvan mountains stand out to the west and the Auxois plain unfolds at its feet to the rhythm of the Burgundy Canal and its Véloroute. At its heart, the 12th and 14th century castle ensured the protection of the villagers, travelers and pilgrims who stopped there on the road to Santiago de Compostela.

The Village has an exceptional wealth of history and heritage that is just waiting to be revealed to you.

The French municipality of Châteauneuf, which is also a listed monument, has a population of just over 80 and is located on the crest of a truncated cone-shaped elevation. The Canal de Bourgogne runs at their feet. The castle, which can be recognized from afar and is one of the most photographed buildings in France, is particularly striking in the village.

Incredibly beautiful little place full of medieval charm. The (quite short) tour here is definitely worth it - try to use all the paths on the map - it's worth it. The castle is currently being renovated, but is simply impressive even from the outside.
