The Burgundy / Saone-et-Loire region
A region rich in history (Cluny, Citeaux, the «Grands Ducs d'Occident»...) and culture. For a long time, Burgundy has been able to benefit from its territory, especially from its prestigious vineyards which have granted Dijon with a worldwide reputation. Beyond this image, Burgundy is a varied region, with very different geographic and economic features. The four departments which make up Burgundy (Côte-dOr, Nièvre, Saône-et-Loire and Yonne) are rich in varied countrysides, with significant economic specialities.
Situated at the heart of Europe, Burgundy has a complicated network of roadlines, railways and river ways running across it, marking it a veritable European crossroads, a land of welcome and of byways which merge to form a real land port. est concentration of
