Semur-en-Auxois

The Armançon River defines the setting of Semur-en-Auxois — it curves around the old town’s granite spur, setting its compact historic core apart from the rolling Auxois countryside. Four medieval towers, among them the Tour de l’Orle d’Or, remain from the former fortifications and still give the centre its unmistakable silhouette. The Gothic Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame rises above the river, while lanes and ramparts trace the town’s long role as a regional stronghold. Semur-en-Auxois presents a quieter, stone-built side of Burgundy beyond the celebrated wine centres. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Bourgogne–Franche-Comté.
