Meursault town hall and town hall square

Highlight • Other

This beautiful backdrop is a great place to take a break. The town hall (Hôtel de ville) is a former feudal castle from the 14th century and has been the location for several films, including "La Grande Vadrouille". There is a fountain, several benches and public toilets.

Route des Grands Crus Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Route des Grands Crus (roughly, "road of the great wines") is the name of a French tourist route situated in Burgundy. The approximately 60-kilometre route runs along the foot of the Côte d'Or escarpment, from Dijon in the north to Santenay in the south. Thus it passes through many of the great appellations of Burgundy wine, hence the name of the route. It takes the visitor through the vineyards of the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune and the back hills (Hautes-Côtes) behind and above the wine slopes. It is punctuated by 33 villages or little towns, including Beaune, many of which have picturesque churches. For route details see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Route_des_Grands_Crus

Route Through the Vineyards

Highlight • Trail

It is always pleasant to ride among the vineyards. And on small, quiet roads like this one, the pleasure is always greater.

In a town in the Moselle Valley, which, like Burgundy, is internationally renowned for its winemaking, I found the following slogan (without citing the source) on a large billboard:
"The earth, the vine, the sunshine,
they bring us the golden wine.
But if it weren't for the work of the winemaker,
even the finest glasses would remain empty."
The statement fits perfectly with the monument shown here.

View of Meursault

Highlight • Settlement

The view of Meursault from the vineyards is the epitome of wine-growing Burgundy. You’ll cycle through rolling hills and vineyards in every direction before coming across Meursault, a village with a distinctive bell tower, set amid some of the world’s most renowned chardonnay vineyards.

The origins of Château de Meursault date back to the 11th century. At that time, Robert I, Duke of Burgundy and son of King Robert II of France, granted the fief of Moulin Foulot to one of his squires. From the 12th to the 16th century, the fief frequently changed hands in the course of power struggles between the Duchy of Burgundy and the French king. In 1645, Pierre Legoux de La Berchère, Lord of La Rochepot, acquired the estate belonging to the lordship of Mazeray.
