Autun, Burgundy, Address available on request

A former 15th century canon's house and its French formal garden at the foot of Autun cathedral. The property is situated at the foot of the cathedral in the heart of the historic district of Autun, the upper town. A former canon's residence, built on thousand-year-old foundations, it seems to date mainly from the 15th century, with numerous subsequent alterations linked to the development of the town. Today, it is accessed via an archway in a discreet cul-de-sac, which opens onto a courtyard leading to the house.
