Το γοητευτικό ρωμανικό παρεκκλήσι των Ναϊτών βρίσκεται στο πάρκο του μουσείου. Το Τάγμα του Ναού ιδρύθηκε το 1128 και ο επίσκοπος του Laon ευνοήσε την εγκατάστασή τους στην πόλη σε γη που ανήκε στον βασιλιά της Γαλλίας, νότια του περιβόλου των κανονικών. Το παρεκκλήσι του Αγίου Ιωάννη του Βαπτιστή ανεγέρθηκε γύρω στο 1140: το οκτάγωνο και το χοροστάσιο είναι τα παλαιότερα μέρη· το προστώο προστέθηκε μερικές δεκαετίες αργότερα.

Beautiful route with views

When you enter, take note of the well-preserved death statue of Guillaume de Harcigny (14th century). This healer learned his trade from Arab doctors in Syria. He was the personal physician of Charles VI and a psychoanalyst avant la lettre. The commandery of the Order of the Temple dates from the 12th century, housed the administration and served as a recruitment centre for monks-knights. After the order was abolished, the commandery came into the hands of the Hospitallers of Jerusalem. The cemetery of the Templars is now a garden. The Romanesque chapel with its bell tower and a choir that ends in an apse with a semi-dome are well preserved. Inside, you can see two statues of prophets from the facade of the cathedral.

The Basilica of Notre Dame de Liesse is a Gothic basilica dating from the 12th century and dedicated to the Virgin Mary, who is said to have miraculously freed three knights from captivity during the Crusades. The basilica was a place of pilgrimage for many kings and queens of France, who came to pray for various favors and blessings. You can admire the beautiful architecture, the statue of the Black Madonna, the frescoes and relics of the basilica, and learn about its rich history and culture. The basilica is located in the town of Liesse-Notre-Dame.

It is a small, sacred area of its own that this crossroads - made in a very eye-catching light red color - occupies, because the surrounding hedges give the CROIX the space it deserves. A few steps lead up and the cross with body rises on a stone base. The INRI tablet hangs on the upper part of the longitudinal beam above the head of Christ.

Here, the city walker will find an early masterpiece of Gothic architecture, a style often found in this part of France – Chartres and Reims, for example, attract enthusiastic international visitors and are far more famous than Laon. In the following 13th century, many Gothic churches were built, not only in their country of origin, France, but also beyond the country's borders, where this sky-high, light-filled architectural style was now in great demand for new churches (for example, the laying of the foundation stone for Cologne Cathedral in 1248).
