Here is a very pretty paved square located opposite the tympanum of the cathedral. It is decorated with the Saint-Lazare fountain. You will find something to eat or refresh yourself …

The Saint-Lazare fountain, built in 1543 by Jean Goujon, is one of the most beautiful fountains in Burgundy, it is part of the cathedral enthroned near the porch. At its summit, a sculpture of a pelican, which disembowels itself to feed its young, represents the Eucharist. Its remarkable ornamentation is one of the rare examples of the Renaissance in Autun.
