La clairière

Situated in the heart of the Côte-d’Or, 22 km north of Dijon, Francheville forms part of the Châtillonnais region.

Our area, with nearly 2,000 hectares of woodland, has for many years been home to big game hunting, including red deer and wild boar.

The 270 residents are spread across the village of Francheville and the nearby hamlet of Prairay. The only business is a café, restaurant and guesthouse.

But there is also wealth to be found underground, with chasms and a network of tunnels that are highly prized by French and European cavers.
