Description 

"Edifiée au XIIème siècle, la basilique Saint Andoche de Saulieu est un très bel exemple de l'art roman bourguignon... même si elle eut à subir d'importants remaniements et restaurations au cours de son histoire"

Information 

Inside the basilique are many carved stone capitals adorned with 'fantastic' animals and vegetation representing biblical themes. A leaflet is obtainable explaining the significance of each adornment.
