ブルギル周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ17

With today's start in Dole, we have left the Burgundy region, which was independent until 2015, and are now also moving into the former Franche Comté region, which existed until 2015. In 2015, both regions were merged to form the new Bourgogne Franche Comté region. On this section, the Rhine-Rhone canal flows for large parts in the bed of the Doubs, which has its source in the Swiss Alps. Besançon is the capital of Franche-Comté, voted the "greenest city in France", and the city of art and history; Besançon has 184 buildings classified as Historic Monuments. Vauban's fortifications are a UNESCO World Heritage Site (citadel, city walls and Fort Griffon). The Rhine-Rhone Canal is a watershed canal that overcomes a total height difference of around 280 meters, of which 170 meters are on the Saône valley side, which are overcome with 82 locks, and 110 meters on the Rhine side, which requires 40 locks.

Characterful Comtoise town which was part of the Holy Roman Empire until the treaty of 1678. Very prosperous in the Middle Ages, due to its trade and its artisans. There has been a cloth hall there since the 14th century, after Jeanne de Bourgogne, countess of Franche-Comté and queen of King Philippe V the Long of France, brought weavers from Paris there. From June 14, 1354 and until the Revolution, the bourgeoisie of Marnay had a charter of emancipation which ensured them security and abundance - "anyone who has a house and keeps fire in the village will be bourgeois". This charter allowed residents to administer the city themselves and thus build ramparts and set up the individual gardens that can still be found there today.

Suspension bridge initially built between 1893 to 1897 to replace the existing ferry. However, it was cut in two in 1944 during the withdrawal of German troops. The ferry therefore resumed service until 1951, when the bridge was rebuilt on the foundations of the previous one.

Don't forget to admire on the other bank, while looking up, the Château Roset-Fluans, already mentioned in texts since the beginning of the 12th century. However, its current architecture dates from the 17th century. It has been listed as a historic monument since 2016.
