'''Semur-en-Auxois''' is a city in Burgundy. A Medieval town in the heart of the Cote d'Or, situated on the banks of the river Armancon. Semur was once a fortified town, and though the castle has now been mostly dismantled, the tall towers and main wall still remain, surrounding the inner part of the town. Tourists enjoy walking the quaint cobblestone streets, shopping and dining in the pedestrian area, and taking in the magnificent views from the two medieval bridges across the Armancon, the Pont Joly and the Pont des Minimes.
