Interesting harbor, as there are many houseboats here.

Originally, the Saint-Jean-de-Losne bridge was made of wood and crossed the river diagonally by road no. 27 linking Dijon to Losne. It started on the right bank, a little downstream from the current bridge, and then joined the old Seurre road. The structure was destroyed many times by floods and ice break-ups, but was always rebuilt in the same place until 1830. It was rebuilt in stone from 1833, then rebuilt again after being cut down during the war of 1870… The bridge suffered damage from the war twice more. On June 16, 1940, French engineers blew up an arch, and on September 7, 1944, the retreating Germans dynamited the rest. It was then replaced by a temporary wooden footbridge. After the liberation, the reconstruction work was put out to tender. After all these twists and turns, the bridge was finally rebuilt in the same place in 1950.

For a hiker, all locks look the same, automated or not.

very pretty corner of the port

Small town on the banks of the Saône which has a certain charm. A few restaurants along the river. The location makes it easy to reach the towpath which connects Dijon.

The Saint-Jean-Baptiste church in Saint-Jean-de-Losne is a 15th century church in Gothic and Renaissance style covered with glazed tiles. An ex-voto boat dedicated to Saint Nicolas (patron saint of boatmen) suspended in the transept since 1826 recalls the river tradition of Saint-Jean-de Losne.

Saint-Jean-de-Losne is originally a town located in an area surrounded by water. The bridge is therefore an essential element to allow access to the city. Originally, this bridge was made of wood and was located opposite the old Seurre road, downstream of the current bridge. It remained in place until the beginning of the 19th century, but these wooden constructions were not strong enough to withstand the floods of the Saône and the ice. In 1838, a stone bridge was built on the site of the current bridge. It was destroyed during the wars of 1870, 1914-1918 and during an explosion in 1940. The current bridge dates from the 1950s and is made of reinforced concrete.
