Former Oratorian Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

In 1616, Bishop Sébastien Zamet commissioned the Oratorians with the direction of his seminary and the training of the priests of his diocese. The prelate provided the newcomers with the land and buildings of the former priory of Saint-Amâtre to the south of his city. The chapel, however, was not built until 1676.

Stone figures

Sculptures located on the pediment of the Diderot college. The building was constructed like this in the 18th century, following a fire.
At the time it was a Jesuit college, where Denis Diderot studied, now it is a public secondary school.

Saint-Mammès Cathedral of Langres

Highlight • Religious Site

Langres is a beautiful place that is probably of Celtic origin. About 2000 years ago the Romans surrounded the city with the fortress.
The city was destroyed by the Vandals around 407 and then rebuilt much smaller. In 731 the city was destroyed, this time by the Saracens.
In 1284, Langres, along with all of Champagne, became part of the French kingdom. In the 14th and 15th centuries, Langres was expanded into a powerful fortress.
It's easy to take a walk along the four-kilometer-long city wall with its twelve towers and seven gates. There is also a small tourist “train” that runs here.
Also worth seeing is the St-Mammès Cathedral, built in the Burgundian-Romanesque style with a touch of Gothic. They were built in two phases around 1160 and 1220.
We have made a stopover in Langres for the third time with our motorhome, up in the citadel with a wonderful view of the landscape, and we are happy to come back.
