Hospiz von Beaune

Highlight • Other

The Hôtel-Dieu is a former hospital in Beaune. It was founded in 1443 and used as a hospital until 1971. The Hôtel-Dieu is now part of the Hospices Civils de Beaune complex. Today, parts of the old complex are used as a retirement home, while the rest can be visited as a museum, providing interesting insights into nursing in the early modern period.

Saint Nicholas Gate

Highlight • Historical Site

The old fortified gate with drawbridge, known as the Porte du Bourgneuf, saw the arrival of many important figures: Henry II, accompanied by Catherine de Medici, was received by the canons in 1548 under a freshly painted triumphal arch with the sound of tambourines; Charles IX, accompanied by the Queen Mother, stayed briefly in 1594 and the gate was decorated again when Louis XIII entered in 1629 on his way to the Alps and Queen Anne of Austria the following year. The most pompous entry, however, was that of Louis XIV and the Queen on 19 and 20 November 1658, when the canon was fired.

Since 1770, the new grand gate, which Mayor Maufoux wanted to bring the city up to date and which was designed by the architect Lenoir Le Romain from Dijon, has welcomed visitors from the north.
