Morbier (French pronunciation: [mɔʁbje] Audio file "LL-Q150 (fra)-Benoît Prieur-morbier.wav" not found) is a commune in the Jura department in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region in Eastern France.[2] From 1680 to 1920, Morbier was, with Morez, the centre of Comtoise clock production. It gave its name to the Morbier cheese, which is produced in a larger area in the Jura Mountains.[3] It is part of Haut-Jura Regional Natural Park.

Population

[edit | edit source]
