Where We Are - Burgundy Friends

Where we are Burgundy Friends

Most of the English speaking members of Burgundy Friends are in Central Burgundy, in and around Autun in the Saone et Loire, Avallon in the Yonne, Luzy in the Nièvre, Beaune in the Côte d’Or and the Morvan Regional Parc, parts of which fall into all the above departments. The majority of our events are held within the areas where members are. The Region of Burgundy (Bourgogne) covers an area north to south from Sens to Macon and east to west from Nevers to Dijon. It is now included in the larger Bourgogne-Franche-Compte administrative region.

Avallon — Our “maison secondaire” is situated in the rural commune of Marigny l’Eglise, just half an hour by car from the northern most gateway town of the Morvan Regional Park. The attached photo shows the stunning historic centre of the town.

Near Avallon — The view from our house is over the Lac du Crescent, its origins dating back to the 1930s when the river Chalaux was flooded to produce hydroelectric power. It is now a favourite lake for keen fishermen

St Nazerre Cathedral viewed from the Place du Refitou in Autun. Usually many tourists here enjoying the sights and sounds
