Very pretty, but beware from here and almost the entire Côte d'Or, it's ugly and full of asphalt/road until Châlons...

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

The Porte Saint-Nicolas is a former 18th-century city gate located in the French town of Beaune (Rue de Lorraine). Traffic entering Beaune from the north had to pass through the Porte du Bourgneuf. This gate was fortified and had a drawbridge. In the 18th century, the ramparts of Beaune lost their military function. Beaune was fortified as a border town with Franche-Comté, but in 1678 this region was annexed to France.

Originally, the Saint-Jean-de-Losne bridge was made of wood and crossed the river diagonally by road no. 27 linking Dijon to Losne. It started on the right bank, a little downstream from the current bridge, and then joined the old Seurre road. The structure was destroyed many times by floods and ice break-ups, but was always rebuilt in the same place until 1830. It was rebuilt in stone from 1833, then rebuilt again after being cut down during the war of 1870… The bridge suffered damage from the war twice more. On June 16, 1940, French engineers blew up an arch, and on September 7, 1944, the retreating Germans dynamited the rest. It was then replaced by a temporary wooden footbridge. After the liberation, the reconstruction work was put out to tender. After all these twists and turns, the bridge was finally rebuilt in the same place in 1950.

The banks of the Saône offer a very pleasant setting for cycling. Today, the towpaths are perfectly suited for two-wheelers, as seen here.

For a hiker, all locks look the same, automated or not.

The gate does not fit stylistically with the medieval city wall and is clearly the result of a later need for recognition. From here you can walk eastwards along a large part of the city wall, which is often still intact.
