Our trip home from Beaune became so interesting as we happened upon a small, feudal town perched up on a cliff overlooking two deep ravines. We parked below and hiked up to the ruins of a fortress and surrounding cluster of vine covered medieval houses. The feudal castle dates back to the 10th century and was enlarged in the 14th century by Duke Phillip the Bold. We visited the small 12th century Romanesque church down a nearby path. After talking to the harpist in the church we found out that four of the houses are actually occupied!
