エペルチュリー周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The small sacred monument we encounter here is a universal symbol of the death of Jesus Christ, the Son of God who became man and was executed on the cross – but at the same time, it is also a symbol of the overcoming of death in the resurrection. Thus, all crosses point us to the Easter perspective of hope – always inherent in Christianity – which, through faith in God, firmly trusts in the ability to overcome death and suffering. + "We Christians connect our hopes, in particular, with the graces of heaven. This gives our hope a concrete connection and grows from faith in God's goodness and love. And we know whom we can thank when our hopes are fulfilled, and whom we can entrust when our hopes are not. I believe this certainty is a grace in itself that we are allowed to experience." (Christiane Völkel)

Meursault: a beautiful wine-growing village, the town hall and its Burgundian rooftops are not to be missed. Fun fact: scenes from The Great Stroll were filmed in Meursault.

A hiking trail to the right circles the Hill of the Three Crosses. First uphill, as always, then a leisurely descent. Afterwards, a quick lunch with friendly people in Santenay's market square!

The name "Montagne de Trois Croix" already hinted at it, and 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, points the observer to 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. Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday, once composed the following prayer on this subject: "Help us, Son of Man, to free ourselves from the arrogance of the thief, the robber on your left, and of the short-sighted and the corrupt (...) Instead, we ask you, Son of God, to identify us with the good thief who looked at you with eyes full of shame, repentance, and hope; who, with the eyes of faith, saw divine victory in your apparent defeat and thus knelt before your mercy and grace and stole paradise with honesty and integrity.

The imposing bridge, 158 metres long, is surrounded on the north side by a cliff edge and overlooks the Cozanne valley.

Weather permitting, this spot offers a wonderful view. Two signs provide orientation. Dolmen sites around the mountain indicate that it played a role for humans as early as 5000 BC, but rare plants and animals also thrive here. Another unique feature is that the border between two departments runs here, so one of the three crosses is in Côte-d'Or and the other two in Saône-et-Loire.

Unfortunately, the future is still unclear, at least until the confiscation by the state becomes legally binding and the way can finally be paved for a new use. Until then, the castle will continue to fall into disrepair - what a pity.
