Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 309 reviews
Bibracte is the name of the former capital of a powerful Gaulish people. The site of the Gaulish town occupies one of the highest summits in the Morvan mountain range, Mont Beuvray, in the Burgundy Region of France. Nowadays, Bibracte is a benchmark site for the study of Celtic civilisation. Bibracte Museum stands on the slopes of Mount Beuvray. In a very contemporary architectural setting, the permanent exhibits offer a fascinating account of Celtic civilisation through its fortified towns. Numerous models, audiovisual presentations, and reconstructions make the museum very attractive and enable you to get right to the heart of the everyday lives of our ancestors. You will thus discover the social organisation, arts and crafts, agriculture, trade, religion, art and culture of peoples who were much less barbaric than Caesar wanted us to believe...

Raised on the foothills of the Jura, this imposing fortress from the beginning of the 13th century is dominated by a large square dungeon surrounded by a large enclosure with adjoining houses, an outdoor boulevard, a cistern, ditches dug in the rock and a drawbridge doorway preceded by a remarkable barbican (200 m2). Owned by the Sires of Dramelay, this ensemble arrived in 1423 to Nicolas ROLIN, grand chancellor of the Dukes of Burgundy, who left many traces of his power. Several times attacked, the Fortress of Presilly resisted French attacks (1637) before being dismantled in 1673. The site is currently managed by the Les Balladins association of Chateau de Presilly. Various animations are carried out during the course of the year. The site visit is free and free
