Dijon - St Bénigne Cathedral

In Dijon, west of the Ducal Palace is the twin-towered Gothic Cathedral St-Bénigne (1280-1314), originally the church of a Benedictine abbey. It incorporates a Romanesque doorway and a large crypt with the tomb of St Bénigne and pre-Romanesque capitals from an earlier church on the same site. The dormitory of the abbey now contains an archeological museum (Roman and medieval antiquities).
