The massive tower of l'église Saint-Just is -by far- the highest structure in the little town of Arbois. It was constructed as a watchtower in 1528 and at that time was even 15m higher than today (still 44m). Helmet and lantern were added to the tower in 1715. Famous Louis Pasteur knew this sight, as he was raised here and later often returned to his home in Arbois, now a museum.

The "Notre Dame du Mont Calvaire" (aka "Chapelle des Trois-Croix") was erected after the Wars of Religion, where once had been roadside calvary ("Three Crosses"). After the French Revolution it was sold and for a while in the 20th century, the chapel served as a museum honoring Louis Pasteur, whose statue can be seen to the left.
