Donde las paredes guardan 6 siglos de secretos gastronómicos y tragedias burguesas
Maison Millière is generally open from Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. It is located in the heart of the Place des Ducs de Bourgogne district in Dijon. I recommend checking the latest opening hours on its official website before your visit, as they may vary on public holidays: Official Dijon website.
Great news! Admission to Maison Millière is completely free for all visitors. You can explore this historic building at no cost. If you are interested in learning more about the history of Dijon, I also recommend the guided tours from Dijon Heritage.
A visit to Maison Millière usually takes between 30 and 45 minutes. This is an ideal amount of time to admire the building’s medieval and Renaissance architecture without rushing. If you are a history enthusiast, you may want to extend your visit to up to an hour to appreciate all the details.
Maison Millière is one of Dijon’s oldest and most representative buildings, built between the 15th and 16th centuries. This extraordinary example of medieval civil architecture features a spectacular Renaissance inner courtyard and was home to important Burgundian families. It is a gem that transports you directly to the age of the Dukes of Burgundy.
The best time to visit is during spring and summer (April to September), when the days are longer and you can also enjoy the surrounding area. On the other hand, Tuesday to Friday mornings are less crowded. If you visit in December, do not miss the Christmas market set up nearby.
Unfortunately, due to its historic and old character, Maison Millière has architectural barriers and does not have a lift or full access ramps for people with reduced mobility. I recommend contacting Dijon City Hall by phone at +33 3 80 44 11 11 to learn about available alternatives.
You are in the perfect location to explore Dijon. Just a short walk away you will find the majestic Saint-Bénigne Cathedral, the Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy, and the iconic Place des Ducs de Bourgogne. I recommend the official Dukes’ Statues route, which begins very close by.
Download the official Dijon map from the tourism website to easily find Maison Millière among its cobbled streets. Wear comfortable shoes, as the historic center is best explored on foot. Consider hiring an audio guide to discover the full history while exploring this fascinating building at your own pace.
