On one of the last nights of our trip, in transit north to Frankfurt from the south of France we spent stopped for a night in Beaune.
The area around Beaune, the Cote de Beaune, is known for its Burgundy wines, with Beaune serving as the hub of the local wine business. Many famous French wineries had buildings in town and the town had a very established, organized feel.
I looked through the my archive of pictures and couldn’t find any of Beaune so you’ll have to make do with my memory. When we arrived in the early evening it was snowing and a light accumulation of dry snow on the ground. We had a very nice room at the Hotel de la Paix and had a nice dinner at a nearby restaurant and had a relaxing evening.
When we left the next day the snow had stopped and the roads were in good condition for our trip to Heppenheim, Germany, a trip of just under 500 kilometres (according to the Google map linked here).
