It is the capital of the Côte d'Or department in central-eastern France. It is located 310 km southeast of Paris. Its population is 149,867 in the city area and 236,953 in the metropolitan area (1999), 155,114 in the city area and 243,244 in the metropolitan area (2015 census). It is located at a key transportation hub, and the opening of the railway in 1851 led to the development of commerce and industry. As a result, the population increased from 30,000 to 70,000 in the second half of the 19th century, and although it stagnated between the First and Second World Wars, it grew rapidly again after 1945. It was the central city of the Duchy of Burgundy in the Middle Ages, and developed as a castle town, especially during the four dukes of Burgundy (1364-1477) of the House of Valois. It is still the administrative, cultural, commercial, judicial and religious center of the Burgundy region today. As a result, the palace from the Duchy era, the ruins of the Chartreuse Abbey in Chammor (Moses' Well and the statue in front of the church by C. Sluter) remain, and the museum has a rich collection. Other notable buildings include the Saint-Bénigne Cathedral (13th century sanctuary, 14th century nave), the Gothic Notre Dame Church (13th century), and the Renaissance-style Saint-Michel Church, making it a tourist city. Industries such as machinery, electricity, automobiles, electronics, food, pharmaceuticals, and plastic products have developed.

フランス中東部、コート・ドール県の県都。パリ南東310キロメートルに位置する。人口市域14万9867、都市圏23万6953(1999)、市域15万5114、都市圏24万3244(2015センサス)。交通の要衝にあり、1851年の鉄道開通により、商工業が発達した。これに伴って19世紀後半に人口が3万から7万に増加し、第一次、二次両世界大戦間には停滞したが、1945年以後ふたたび急増した。中世のブルゴーニュ公国の中心都市で、とりわけバロア家ブルゴーニュ公4代(1364~1477)の間にその城下町として発展した。現在もブルゴーニュ地方の行政、文化、商業、司法、宗教の中心地となっている。そのため、公国時代の宮殿、シャンモルのシャルトルーズ修道会の遺跡(モーセの井戸と、C・スリューテル作の教会正面の立像)などが残り、美術館の収蔵品も豊富である。ほかにサン・ベニーニュ寺院(内陣13世紀、身廊14世紀)、ゴシック様式のノートルダム教会(13世紀)、ルネサンス風のサン・ミシェル教会などがあり、観光都市ともなっている。機械、電気、自動車、電子、食品、薬品、プラスチック製品などの工業が発達する。 [大嶽幸彦] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
