(Translated by Google) When the city is in the fog… superb. However, beautiful hikes are possible with different durations and a bit of elevation gain. (Original) Quand la ville est dans le brouillard… superbe. Néanmoins belles randos possible avec des durées différentes et un peu de dénivelé.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful spot right next to Besançon which can be reached by car (15 min from Besançon) or by hiking. For a picnic at the end of the day with the sunset it is perfect. (Original) Très beau spot juste à côté de Besançon auquel on peut accéder en voiture (15 min de Besançon) ou en rando. Pour un pique nique en fin de journée avec le coucher de soleil c’est parfait.

(Translated by Google) Project by Louis Beuque carried out from 1775 to 1785, the church only saw the addition of a porch to its facade in 1826. Basilica in plan, it has a facade with an arched cornice, preceded by a portico porch. The bell tower and the sacristy accompany the right bay of the choir which ends in an apse. It is listed as a historic monument. (Original) Projet de Louis Beuque réalisé de 1775 à 1785, l'église ne connut ensuite que l'adjonction d'un porche à sa façade en 1826. De plan basilical, elle présente une façade à corniche cintrée, précédée par un porche en portique. La tour du clocher et la sacristie accompagnent la travée droite du chœur qui se termine par une abside. Elle est inscrite aux monuments historiques.
