V Notre Dame D’Auxonne
The small town of Auxonne, lying between Dijon and Besançon, is seldom thought of in connection with a cathedral church. There is little there to compel one’s attention beyond the fact that the Church of Notre Dame, of the fourteenth-sixteenth century, is an interesting enough example of a minor edifice which at one time was classed as a cathedral.
The church is mainly Gothic and has the unusual arrangement of a Romanesque tower rising above the transept.
