Verdun-Ciel (formerly Verdun-sur-le-Doubs), a medieval town located at the confluence of the Saône and Doubs rivers, owes its eventful history to the two waterways that surround it, having long served as a border town between Burgundy and France. Visit its marina and lively quays, and taste its culinary specialty, pôchouse (a freshwater fish dish).

Dole, a small jewel in the Franche-Comté. Through the alleys into the tanners' quarter, where the father of microbiology, Louis Pasteur, was born and the Doubs flows so calmly that you almost forget that this city was once the powerful capital of Franche-Comté. The architecture of the quarter still tells of tanners and leather craftsmanship: houses with large cellars where the hides were processed in pits and vats, as well as drying floors with wide openings through which the leather dried in the wind.

A small, nice place. Before the bridge, there is a bakery.

The Saint-Jean house overlooks the Doubs River, at the end of the Saint-Jean bridge, a former wooden drawbridge. In 1684, it became the town hall and housed a military post. Today, it remains a witness to many events that have shaped Verdun-Ciel.
