Situated 60 km from Lyon, the City of Bourg en Bresse is conveniently
located at the crossroads of four most attractive regions (Bresse,
Dombes, Bugey and Pays du Gex), colourful and full of character,
constituting an extraordinary environment for tourists.
Among other things, you will discover splendid historic monuments such
as the Monastery of Brou, a 16th Century masterpiece, erected by
marguerite d’Autriche for the glory of Philibert le Beau. But this
French region’s reputation was also established through the beauty of
its wilds, celebrated at the Birds Reserve of Villars les Dombes, and
through its magnificent gastronomy.
The distinctiveness of this
area is that is reconciles nature (marshes host thousands of protected
birds species) and a permanent quest for quality of life and food. You
will therefore be introduced to a truly original province, which
perfectly combines traditions with today’s lifestyle.
