Chaource - Saint-Jean-Baptiste
The small town of Chaource (pop. 1100) is known for the Chaource cheese, produced here since medieval times, and the church dedicated to Saint-Jean-Baptiste, seen here.
The choir was part of a church built within the 14th century, but from 1531 on the old nave got teared down and was replaced. Chapels were added to the structure – and a great number of sculptures was collected. They survived iconoclasts and revolutionary vandals and now are on display.
