Most unique part of this cathedral is its Romanesque circular crypt, over 1,000 years old, with its 8 monolithic columns and another circle of columns with archaic capitals. Tomb of Saint Benigne at the entrance with ancient mosaics. Some of the walls are actually made of sarcophagi. A top opening cleverly lets in a beam of light. Highly atmospheric place of timeless beauty.

Beautiful Cathedral in the city of Dijon. It's not a big one but it has some great statues and a wonderful altar. Nice historical explanation is visible inside and how and when it was build. As always when visiting a Cathedral we lighted some candles. There nothing negative to say about it so just visit and enjoy the beauty.

Externally both beautiful and imposing with intricate carvings and statues. Inside, more plain and austere, but adorned with beautiful alcoves and the stain glass windows are sublime, especially the one by Chagall.

A beautiful cathedral that is free to visit. You can also pay 2 euros for an underground crypt that is rather spooky.

The crypt is quite interesting and there was nice quiet music playing in the main part of the cathedral.

What a city. What a cathedral. What a palace.

This is the main cathédrale of Dijon. A magnificent building even from the outside with its glazed burgundy tile roofs and every bit as gothic and romanesque façades, and it's the tallest building in Dijon. You feel welcomed here! It has a rich history dating back to the late 1200! Inside is stunning and stupendous with its magnificent nave and spectacular choir vaults. The nave is believed to have contained burials and there's a crypt in the lower church accessible by a staircase. The organ gallery is magnificent with stained-glass windows abound giving the interior a glowing effects. As a listed historic monument, it's a must visit if you are in Dijon.
