Origin and history

Dijon's charcuterie, classified as a Historical Monument, is distinguished by its exceptional interior decor. Dating from the 1st quarter of the 20th century, it houses painted opaline tiles, executed in 1907 by the Beyer family, master glassmakers from Besançon. These panels represent landscapes and animals, while the ceiling is decorated with floral motifs and birds. This type of decor, rare in Burgundy, bears witness to a remarkable artisanal and artistic know-how for the time.

The interior decor of the charcuterie, located at 26 Monge Street in Dijon, was protected by a registration order dated 19 July 2005. This monument is now owned by a private company. Although its access to the public is not specified, its heritage interest lies in the preservation of an almost unique decorative ensemble in the region, illustrating early twentieth century glassmaking.

The location of this monument, in the city centre of Dijon, makes it an element of Burgundy urban heritage. The accuracy of its geographical location is estimated as fair (level 5/10), based on available data. The visual information comes in particular from photographs by Nicolas Boissier, licensed under Creative Commons, contributing to its documentation and cultural enhancement.
