The Saint-Jean Cathedral of Besançon, also called Saint-Jean Saint-Étienne Cathedral of Besançon, is a Carolingian church, basilica, and cathedral in Franche-Comté in Besançon, built in the 3rd century and then rebuilt several times, notably in the 9th and 11th centuries; it includes Romanesque, Gothic, and Baroque parts. The building is one of the few in France to have two opposing choirs; it houses about thirty paintings classified as historical monuments, an astronomical clock considered a masterpiece of its kind, as well as the Rose of Saint-Jean, a circular altar dating from the 11th century and entirely made of white marble. The cathedral is nestled at the foot of Mont Saint-Étienne near the citadel of Besançon, behind the Gallo-Roman Black Gate and facing the former episcopal palace of the Archbishopric of Besançon, on the road leading up to the citadel of Besançon.
