At the heart of the Golden Triangle, between Arbois and Poligny Grozon formerly Roman city of more than 10 000 inhabitants, had a salt that was used to extract and exploit the rock salt. If Salins-les-Bains and Arc-et-Senans, nearby have retained vestiges of that era, Grozon unfortunately exist only traces of that era. Until early this century, Grozon was a mining center of gypsum, and plaster was very famous ... galleries which worked more than 200 minors are now discontinued.

Today Grozon is a small wine farm and peaceful, located in the Jura vineyards, near the cheese factory and the famous County, where life is good.
