KS5 French Listening - Le Patrimoine Dijon

This KS5 French listening exercise is ideal for Le Patrimoine unit. ’Dijon, une ville fière de son patrimoine’, takes the listener on a visit to the capital of Burgundy and the home of the Dukes of Burgundy. Steeped in history and full of examples of different architechtural styles from many of the main periods of the past millenium, the centre of the town has been registered as a UNESCO world heritage site since July 2015.

Accompanying the YouTube video this resource includes a full transcript of the audio, a sheet of key words and a set of questions with answers.

Maison Claire Fontaine is a French language immersion and activity centre for UK school children based in the beautiful Burgundian countryside. We have been producing these videos during the coronovirus to hopefully provide the opportunity for a bit of Burgundy to find its way to UK school children whilst they cannot travel to Burgundy themselves.

We offer all these resources for free. However, if you have found them useful we would be enormously grateful if you could share them with others as well as promote our online French lessons and conversation classes to your pupils, fellow teachers and parents. Our teachers would love to hear from anyone who would like to improve their own French speaking with fun, enthusiastic and experienced French native speakers based here in Burgundy.

We value your feedback and look forward to hearing from you on our email : maisoncfontaine@gmail.com.

A HUGE thank you for your help.
