Burgundy is renowned for its friendliness and Bouilland is definitely not an exception. Thanks to its inhabitants and its community life, many activities are proposed during the summer period.
This sense of sharing is particularly important for us. That’s why, during the summer period, we use to invite everyone of each gite to share information and request in a very friendly way around a toast.
The intern area surrounding Beaune and Dijon is blessed with one of the most remarkable natural environments found anywhere in Burgundy.
Concerned with preserving and spotlighting this shared heritage, the Community of Communes of Beaune wished to invest in the Natura 2000’s approach thanks to the integration of the valley of Rhoin in this network.
First encouraging steps in the conservation of the environment have also appeared, but there is still a long way to go. Everyone can make a contribution while discovering the natural riches of this region or through voluntary action.
Althought small, Bouilland has a rich and ancient history and cultural heritage. Unfortunately, most of these periods disappeared but some remains, as the Saint Marguerite’s Abbey, as withstood the test of time.
That is why an inhabitant of Bouilland, called the “Bouillandin”, has decided to trace the history of village. For many years, he collected testimonies, memories, photos, documents, maps. As a result, he published a book containing all these researches.
