Montbard benefits from the reputation of a tourist town. Whether in the heart of the town or in the surrounding area, visitors will be delighted to discover interesting historical monuments that enhance the town. And, thanks to the Yvonne and Burgundy, Montbard is also a delight for those who enjoy boat trips.
Enjoying yourself in Montbard
Located about 63 km from the city of Dijon, the floral town of Montbard has much to offer its visitors. In addition to its historical heritage, the forges of the famous tale by Buffon are an interesting attraction for history buffs. Located about 3 km northwest of the town, this building includes dwellings comprising a farm, gardens and industrial buildings.
And if you'd like to take a step back in time, linger by the ramparts of the Château de Montbard, a remnant of the imposing medieval-style castle built around the 10th century. This visit also opens the doors to a lush green park where you can relax with your family before heading to a magnificent museum housing an incredible collection. Don't miss the beautiful church of Sainte-Urse and the old houses that embellish the town, such as that of Jean-Andoche Junot, built around the 18th century.
Continue the tour on the water
If you want to try something a little different in Montbard, don't miss the chance to take a trip on the water. Hire a river yacht or river boat in Montbard and head off to some of the interesting destinations around the town. By taking the Yvonne, for example, you can sail peacefully to Joigny, a town known for its haute cuisine. Joigny, at the confluence of the Burgundy Canal and the Yvonne, is also a perfect point of departure for exploring the region.
Farms and green landscapes, abbeys, picturesque villages, etc. The cultural and natural riches follow one another throughout your boat trip. Even the hundred-year-old poplars standing on the banks seem to greet visitors in search of a change of scenery. Once back in Montbard, consider immortalizing the remains of the Château de Montfort, a 13th-century medieval fortress.
