| This church is a Roman Catholic church, considered a masterpiece of 13th-century Gothic architecture, situated at the heart of the preserved old centre of Dijon. It is in Place Notre-Dame, near the Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy and opposite the rue Musette. The gargoyles, carved or formed grotesques with a spout are designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building thereby preventing rainwater from running down masonry walls and eroding the mortar between upon the facade of the Church of Notre-Dame of Dijon. |
