Tour du Doyenné

Highlight • Monument

The Tour du Doyenné was built in the 14th or 15th century near the cathedral, in front of the dean's house. In the 19th century the tower was sold, dismantled and transported to Paris. It was then bought by an American and returned to Chalon-sur-Saône where it was given a place on the island of Saint Laurent. The tower is only open to visitors on special occasions.

Chalon-sur-Saône

Highlight • Settlement

Chalon-sur-Saône is a town worth a detour: it is known for its Nicéphore Niepce museum, inventor of photography, but also for its “Chalon dans la rue” festival, which hosts street shows every year in July.
Its old town, around Place Saint-Vincent and its cathedral, has many half-timbered houses where it is pleasant to stroll.
