Minister of Culture for almost a year, successively in the governments of Gabriel Attal, Michel Barnier and François Bayrou, Rachida Dati returns to her Burgundian lands on Thursday January 9.
Born in Saint-Rémy, near Chalon-sur-Saône, attended the University of Dijon, where she studied economics, she will indeed be traveling to Dijon, where the focus will largely be on heritage.
Saint-Bénigne and Drac on the program
This Dijon sequence, the times of which remain to be specified, will first take place at the Saint-Bénigne cathedral, a monument which benefited from the Cathedrals Plan put in place in 2021 by the State after the fire at Notre-Dame de Paris.
The minister should in particular announce the continuation of the work which must be undertaken in the Dijon building. She will then meet the staff of the Regional Directorate of Cultural Affairs (Drac).
This ministerial visit will continue in the Jura, where the themes of mobility and access to culture in rural areas will be discussed, a subject which earned him, last year, a lively exchange with the Côte-d'Orien MP. Hubert Brigand.
The commitment of the Scènes du Jura, a national scene, in the commune of Champdivers should be highlighted, as well as structuring projects in the Grand Dole.
