Montagne de Bard, Limestone mountain summit in Côte-d'Or, France

The Montagne de Bard rises to 554.2 meters, featuring distinct limestone formations that characterize the natural landscape of Burgundy region.

During World War II, German forces constructed an observation bunker at the summit, which the French Resistance demolished in July 1944.

A Peace Belvedere was established in 2013 to commemorate 9,000 resistance fighters from Auxois and Morvan regions who defended the area.

Visitors can reach the summit through a 200-meter pathway from the road that ends at 500 meters elevation, offering views across the surrounding terrain.

The eastern approach presents a challenging 560-meter climb with gradients reaching 22.5 percent, making it one of the steepest ascents in Côte-d'Or.
