In 1443 the Hôtel-Dieu opened under Nicolas Rolin, its glazed roof tiles flashing above rue de l’Hôtel-Dieu. Within a 500‑meter stroll you can move from Rogier van der Weyden’s Last Judgment polyptych to barrel-lined courtyards and the clock tower off rue Paradis. The charity wine auction, launched in 1859, still helps fund hospital work and municipal vines. Just beyond, the Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame keeps 15th‑century tapestries, while the Fallot mustard mill proves Beaune’s story isn’t only Pinot Noir.
Your driver meets you at your Beaune hotel in a Mercedes and stays on call: drop-off at the Hospices, visit at your rhythm, then a quick rendezvous by Place Carnot or rue d’Alsace. The plan flexes easily—tasting at Patriarche (about 8 minutes on foot), the Marché aux Vins two blocks away, a photo stop on the ramparts. With a dedicated driver in Côte-d’Or, you can sip, ask questions, and leave the parking, timing, and pick-ups to us.

To see the glazed tiles without crowds, aim for the Hospices opening at 9:00 on Tuesdays or Thursdays outside school holidays; book Patriarche for the 10:15 slot to miss group traffic.
