Chenôve, Côte-d'Or Département, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, France
🇫🇷 Chenôve is a commune in the Côte-d'Or department in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France.
Until 1955, it was a small scale wine-growing village, when it was absorbed into the urban conglomeration of Dijon. It is now the most populous suburb of the city of Dijon, located adjacent to the city's south-west side.

Geography To the west of Chenôve, above the old town, is the Plateau of Chenôve, which reaches an altitude of 387 m. It has views of the city, its surroundings, and the distant plains of the Saône and Jura. In good weather it allows views of the contours of Mont Blanc. The plateau extends over 240 hectares with a great landscape diversity – alternating valleys, forests of Austrian pines, oak, ash, shrubland, and vast flat plains peppered with groves. It has rich Mediterranean flora.
In addition, there are the ancient limestone quarries in Chenôve, from which many of the monuments in Dijon were built.
