The church Saint-Didier de Saint-Didier, located in the Côte-d'Or department in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, is a religious monument whose exact origins are not documented in the available sources. His name suggests a connection with St Didier, bishop of Autun in the sixth century, although this association is not explicitly confirmed for this building. Parish churches like that of Saint-Didier played a central role in the life of Burgundy rural communities.

They served as a place of worship, assembly and identity marker for the inhabitants. In Burgundy-Franche-Comté, these buildings often reflected local religious architecture, sometimes mixing Romanesque and Gothic elements according to the times of construction or renovation.
