Description

The Saint-Lazare Cathedral clock, in Autun, Burgundy, France.

Closeup of the town clock on Autun Cathedral, also known as St. Lazare's cathedral, which dates from the early twelfth century and is a major example of Romanesque architecture. It was formerly the chapel of the Dukes of Burgundy; their palace was the actual episcopal residence. The cathedral was originally built as a pilgrimage church for the veneration of the relics of Lazarus, Lazare d'Aix, a Christian martyr who was archbishop of Aix-en-Province. Autun's 12th-century bishop.
