Église Saint-Gengoulf is a historic church in Chalindrey, dedicated to Saint Gengoulf, whose relics are kept in Langres. The church was built in the 16th century on the site of an old chapel belonging to the castle of the lords of Chalindrey. The church was later restored in the 18th century, when the bell tower was added. The church has five altars, one of which contains the body of Saint Vitalis, a gift from Pope Pius VI. The church also has some interesting architectural elements, such as the Gothic windows, the dovecote and the organ.
