⛪ Basilica of Saint John the Baptist – Chaumont - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)

Basilica of Saint John the Baptist – Chaumont, France

A 13th‑century Gothic church with twin towers, a beautiful south door, and notable artworks such as the 1471 polychrome Entombment and pieces by Bouchardon. Once a collegiate church (1474), it later became a basilica.

Tips:
• See the ornate south door and Entombment.
• Best views from Square Philippe Lebon.
• Visit in May–June or September–October.
• Saturday market nearby for local flavors.
• Dress modestly inside.
