長い日陰の道

アユーの十字架は、フォンテーヌ＝レ＝ディジョン北部の、アユーへ続く道と、ヴォー通りとボワ通りとの交差点にそびえ立っています。これは、アセンション（昇天祭）前の3日間に行われる行列（祈り）の際に、聖人たちの機嫌を取り、災いを遠ざけ、豊作を祈願するために設けられた4つのカルバリー（キリストの受難をかたどった十字架）の一つでした。

The Dijon Owl (La Chouette de Dijon) is a small medieval sculpture on the north buttress of the Église Notre-Dame in Dijon, and has been considered a lucky charm for centuries. According to tradition, you should touch the owl with your left hand while making a wish, without looking, to bring good luck. Its exact origin is unknown, but it is suspected that the owl symbolized wisdom or served as the signature of a medieval stonemason's guild. Due to frequent touching, the owl has been restored several times, including after vandalism in 2001. The owl also marks the starting point of the "Parcours de la Chouette," a walking route that takes in 22 Dijon landmarks, recognizable by small bronze owls set into the pavement. The owl has become an iconic and beloved symbol of the city.
