    Many of Dijon's finest hôtels particuliers (aristocratic townhouses) are north of the Palais des Ducs on and around rues Verrerie, Vannerie and des Forges, whose names reflect the industries that once thrived along them (glassmakers, basket-weavers and metalsmiths, respectively). The early-17th-century Maison des Cariatides, its façade a riot of stone caryatids, vines and horns, is particularly fine.
