Classic-style hall church located in the heart of Besançon, in the Doubs, the Sainte-Madeleine church dates from the 18th century. Partly rebuilt in the first half of the 19th century on the orders of the architect Nicolas Nicole, it now enjoys a classification as a Historic Monument.

Located at the entrance of the Battant district, the old historic district of the city's winegrowers, it seduces as much by its incredible artistic cachet as by its width, its double fluted piles or even its impressive vault enriched with a dome. crossing of the transept. Dark due to the small number of windows, it nevertheless presents some beautiful architectural prowess for the time.

The interior of the Sainte-Madeleine church presents a fine collection of old paintings as well as a magnificent museum of religious art open in summer and on Heritage Days. The latter presents beautiful pieces that bear witness to the life of the inhabitants of the district over the centuries.
