In 2006 the Cranleigh and Semur-en-Auxois Twinning Association (CaST) was formed to promote friendship and cultural, educational and business links with Cranleigh.
Semur-en-Auxois is a small medieval town, full of charm, which is situated a few kilometres north-west of Dijon. In May 2007 a small group from Cranleigh spent the first biennial exchange visit to the town, enjoying Twinning celebrations and the annual medieval fair.
Since then there has been an annual exchange alternating visits from Cranleigh to Semur and Semur to Cranleigh. This year it is the turn of Cranleigh members of the Twinning to visit Semur. See details on our Events page.
Membership is open to anyone who is interested. Please get in touch via the Contacts page if you would like to be involved.
