CORPEAU

Halfway between Beaune and Chalon-sur-Saône, Corpeau, bordering on the great vineyards of Côte de Beaune, was, at the time of the famous Route Nationale 6, a major stop-off for the holiday crowd. Its Auberge du Pont de Paris, backing onto a retro petrol station which features in the cultural heritage of the 20th century, is living testimony to such.
