Église Saint-Anatoile de Salins-les-Bains, Romanesque church in Salins-les-Bains, France.

The Church of Saint Anatoile is a 13th-century Burgundian Gothic building in Salins-les-Bains. Its facade has a carved wooden Romanesque portal flanked by two 16th-century Gothic chapels, and a massive bell tower that was a defensive tower attached in 1699 and rebuilt by architect Dufour in 1838 after the 1826 fire. Inside, a pointed ribbed vault rises over the nave, with a rose window and tall stained-glass windows at the far end.

A 6th-century chapel replaced an earlier one dedicated to Saints Symphorien and Agathe on the tomb of Saint Anatoile, a 5th-century Scottish hermit linked to the miracle of the salt waters. In 1024 Hugues I of Salins made it a collegiate church. The present Gothic building was erected in the 13th century under Count Jean I of Chalon.

Saint Anatoile was a 5th-century Scottish hermit who lived on the slopes of Mont Belin and is linked to the miracle of the salt waters. Fourteen tapestries of his life, woven in Bruges between 1502 and 1506, hung here; three survive at the Louvre. A banner reading "Carême" hangs in the nave.

The interior holds a historical organ built between 1866 and 1880 by Joseph Merklin and later restored to its original sound. Visitors should allow time to examine the fine details of the wooden portal and the different chapel areas.

The bell tower was originally a defense tower and was integrated into the church structure in 1699 before a fire in 1826 forced its rebuilding. This military conversion is unusual and shows the site's strategic importance in the past.
