Origin and history

The church Our Lady of Auxonne is a religious building built between the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, located in the commune of Auxonne, Burgundy-Franche-Comté. This monument, classified as Historical Monuments by decree of 24 December 1907, bears witness to the medieval religious architecture of the region. Its precise location, noted as "very satisfactory" (note 8/10), is attested at 5 Rue de Berbis, in the department of Côte-d-Or (code Insee 21038).

The church of Notre-Dame is an integral part of the local heritage. Although available sources (Monumentum, Merimée base) do not specify its current use in detail, its classification in 1907 underscores its historical and architectural importance. The data also indicate an approximate address derived from GPS coordinates, confirming its anchoring in the city centre.

The period of construction, spreading over the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, places this building in a medieval context marked by the rise of cities and the central role of parish churches. They served not only as places of worship, but also as community landmarks and symbols of religious and civil power. In Burgundy, then under the influence of duuché and then of the Kingdom of France, churches like Notre-Dame d'Auxonne reflected the social and economic dynamics of the period, particularly through their architecture and decor.
