Nuits-Saint-Georges

Nuits-Saint-Georges is a wine-producing commune in Côte-d'Or that spreads across rolling hills covered with vineyards. The town sits between Dijon and Beaune in the heart of Burgundy wine country, surrounded by the agricultural landscape that defines this region.

The roots of this town trace back to ancient times, as shown by archaeological findings at Les Bolards, where remnants of a Roman settlement with temples and workshops remain visible. These early structures reveal how long people have lived and worked at this location.

The Saint Symphorien church displays Romanesque and Gothic architectural styles with its core structure from the 13th century and entrance porch added in the 17th century. Visitors can observe how different architectural periods were combined in this single religious building.

The weekly Friday market in the town center offers local products and gives visitors a sense of how the region lives day to day. The Grande Rue with its many wine shops invites you to explore and taste the local wines produced here.

The local hospital, founded in 1634, still owns its own vineyard lands whose wine sales help support medical care operations. This unusual arrangement ties together the facility's long history with the region's wine culture in a distinctive way.
