Burgundy (Bourgogne)
Palais des Ducs et des États de Bourgogne
Dijon's Gothic-and-classical ducal palace on Place de la Libération — now home to the city hall, the Musée des Beaux-Arts, the tourist office, and the climbable Tour Philippe le Bon.
The Palais des Ducs et des États de Bourgogne is the monumental heart of Dijon, facing the curved colonnade of Place de la Libération (source: dijon-france-research.md). The courtyards are free to enter, and the complex houses the city hall, the Musée des Beaux-Arts, and the tourist office where the Owl's Trail begins (source: dijon-france-research.md).
For the best view in the city, climb the Tour Philippe le Bon — a 46-metre mid-15th-century tower with panoramic views over Dijon's tiled roofs (guided climb, small fee) (source: dijon-france-research.md).
