Place Émile-Zola, Public square in central Dijon, France.
Place Émile-Zola features stone basins and plane trees in its center, creating an open gathering space surrounded by traditional buildings.
From medieval times until the French Revolution, this location served as the city's public execution site, known then as Place du Morimont.
The square received its current name in 1921 to honor French writer Émile Zola, reflecting the city's connection to literature and arts.
Several restaurants and cafes line the perimeter of the square, offering traditional Burgundian cuisine and outdoor seating throughout the day.
The 13th-century Cellier de Morimont, a preserved medieval wine cellar from Morimond Abbey, stands adjacent to the square in Cour Madeleine.
