Dijon #1

2008.03.26
On the way

Millére house, rue de la Chouette (15th century)

The Palace of the Dukes and the State of Burgundy was built in the 17th century

The towers of Saint-Bénigne’s Cathedral.

The glazed roof tiles - a typical feature of Dijon. This extremely ancient style of roofing can also be found on the tomb stone of Hugues d'Arc, the Abbot of Saint Bénigne's (early 16th century).

The church of Notre – Dame built between 1220 and 1250. Some of the fake gargoyles which cover the front of the building were partially destroyed before being recarved at the end of the 19th century. Full of imagery, they illustrate the virtues and vices. Some of them belonged to the original building

Saint – Michael’s Church, which resembles a piece of stone lacework, was born out of the alliance of the Gothic and Renaissance styles

The Bareuzai statue watches over Place Francois – Rude

Rue de la Liberté , the House with Three Faces (15th century)

Rue de Forges, the richly decorated Renaissance facade of the Maillard house
