The city of Chalon-sur-Saône is one of the few in France to still have a complete cathedral group (episcopal palace, canons' houses, church and cloister. Built from the 9th to the 16th century, the meeting of Romanesque and Gothic styles is quite harmonious. The cathedral is endowed with the most beautiful set of Romanesque capitals of Saône and Loire. The capitualire room and Lemoureux chapel, decorated with 15th century murals, will be visible during the visit. A tactile model of the cathedral is available to the visually impaired or visually impaired public at the entrance of the building**. Please note**: Hourly visits by a tour guide of the Cities and Countries of Art and History.

About the location

Cathédrale Saint-Vincent
Place Saint-Vincent, 71100 Chalon-sur-Saône
  • Saône-et-Loire
  • Bourgogne-Franche-Comté
If the existence of a cathedral in Chalon-sur-Saône is attested from the 5th century, the current building was built from the 12th century, while the Romanesque art is at its peak. Traditionally, construction begins with the choir (the sacred space, where worship can therefore be celebrated); then the transept, the nave, and finally the facade are erected. Here, three sites are attested to in the Romanesque era: the chapels of the choir, the choir, the transept, the aisles and the walls of the nave (this one is probably not covered with stone but with a wooden frame, the work remains unfinished). Then, in the Gothic period, four building sites stand out: the apse and the cover of the choir are taken over (construction of a vault under a cross of warheads consisting of seven parts, which comes to rest on the pillars of the arcades of the ground floor, of Romanesque era) as well as the transept crossing, the chapter hall was built, all this around 1230; the nave was completed and covered
