Église Saint-Jean de Joigny, Gothic church in central Joigny, France.

The Saint-Jean church features medieval columns in the choir section and Renaissance architectural elements in its upper structure.

Built in the 13th century, the church underwent significant reconstructions after the Hundred Years War around 1490 and between 1548 and 1596 under Jean Chéreau.

The tomb of Countess Aélis of Joigny from the 13th century and a 16th-century entombment represent the main artistic elements of the church.

Religious services take place regularly in this church, which belongs to the Parish of Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Joigny with a detailed calendar of celebrations.

The lowered barrel vault of the church contains garden embroidery patterns that decorate the entire interior space.
