This article is about the French administrative région of Bourgogne. For the historical duchy and province of Burgundy, as well as the cultural area of Burgundy, see Burgundy.

Bourgogne (; English: Burgundy) is one of the 22 régions of France.

The région of Bourgogne is both larger than the old Duchy of Burgundy and smaller than the area ruled by the Dukes of Burgundy. It is made up of the following old provinces:

• Burgundy: Côte-d'Or, Saône-et-Loire, and southern half of Yonne. This corresponds to the old duchy of Burgundy (later called "province of Burgundy"). However, the old county of Burgundy (later called "province of Franche-Comté") is not included inside the Bourgogne région, but it makes up the Franche-Comté région. Also, a small part of the duchy of Burgundy (province of Burgundy) is now inside the Champagne-Ardenne région.
• Nivernais: Nièvre département
• the northern half of Yonne is a territory that was not part of Burgundy (at least not since the 11th century), and was a frontier between Champagne, Île-de-France, and Orléanais, depending from each of these provinces at different times in history.
