ANCIEN PRIEURE BENEDICTIN
Read moreThis beautiful eighteenth century building is adjacent to the basilica. Bought by the Paray municipality in 1791 alongside the basilica, it has hosted the elementary schools of the city for a long time. The medieval cloister garden adjoining the basilica is admirable with a panel that makes us appreciate the richness of species with perfumed leaves. Of medieval inspiration, the shape of the garden represents a cross. Until the Revolution,the cloister hosted the Cluniac monks. The facade of the priory has the characteristics of classical art of the seventeenth and eighteenth century.A triangular pediment had weapons of Cluny, skylights, griffins and vintage cartridges. The interior produces tranquility. The large vaulted galleries edges offered to the monks a space for prayer, meditation and work.

CHAPELLE DE LA VISITATION
Read moreIt was in this chapel that Jesus would have appeared to St. Margaret Mary in 1673 and 1675. Also called Chapel of Apparitions, this chapel situated at the Visitation Street was built around 1633 and was rebuilt in the late nineteenth century to accommodate large number of pilgrims. The sessionnists are also many to come here every summer and discover this sacred place. A fresco painted in 1966 and 1973 represents the second appearance in which Christ presents its wounds of the Passion. To the right of the choir, a small chapel houses the shrine of Sainte-Marguerite-Marie Alacoque where a molding wax covering her bones rests.This shrine dates from the beatification of the nun in 1864 before being canonized in 1920.

CHURCH OF SAINT-SEINE-L'ABBAYE
Read more25 km from Dijon, in the middle of the forests of Val Suzon, after a 20-minute journey on a winding road, the oldest Gothic Gothic building will point in the middle of the trees. Originally a monastery of the century lived instead of the abbey still on foot. Founded by a monk bearing the name "Sigo" who over time will give the name "Seigne", meaning "Seine", although this sanctuary "sanctus sequanus" has even older origins. The abbey church, in itself, sees the beginning of its construction at the end of the th century and will be completed in the th and th centuries under three abbots, including Jean de Blaisy and Pierre de Fontette. Moreover, we can see the tombstones of the latter in the church. The th century portal is decorated with typical plant motifs typical of Burgundy Gothic. The four-pillar nave and collateral is a fine example of the churches plan of that time. A th century carved stone jubé in the nave was moved to the choir. There are th-century stalls. The most exceptional element is undoubtedly the wall paintings dating back to 1504. They represent the legend of Saint Seine in 22 paintings in the north of the church and, to the south the tree of Jesse, Saint Christopher and litanies of the Virgin in a style that draws its influences in the Renaissance.
