A weekend in beautiful and underrated Besançon - France Travel VLOG 2022 - 4K

Hello Everyone, end of May 2022, bank holiday weekend, we spent 3 days in Besançon in Eastern France. We drove from Stuttgart, Germany and stopped by Titisee lake near Freiburg on the way. We spent a very nice weekend visiting the magnificent citadel and its zoo and museums. We also visited the house where Victor Hugo was born, the beautiful Cathedrale and also the old city with its beautiful Vauban Architecture. On the last day we took a nice narrow-boat tour along the Doubs river. Not to mention great french food and wines…. Besançon is a city in eastern France, near the border with Switzerland. The old city center lies in a horseshoe bend on the Doubs River. The sprawling Citadel of Besançon perches on a hill and is home to 3 museums, a zoo and 600m-long ramparts. At the foot of the hill, Besançon Cathedral has a unique 70-­dial astronomical clock that indicates sunrise and sunset, eclipses, and tides in French ports. The Citadel of Besançon is a 17th-century fortress in Franche-Comté, France. It is one of the finest masterpieces of military architecture designed by Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban. The Citadel occupies 11 hectares on Mount Saint-Etienne, one of the seven hills that protect Besançon, the capital of Franche-Comté. Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban, Seigneur de Vauban, later Marquis de Vauban, commonly referred to as Vauban, was a French military engineer who worked under Louis XIV. He is generally considered the greatest engineer of his time, and one of the most important in Western military history.
