Palais épiscopal d'Auxerre, Episcopal palace in Auxerre, France
The Palais épiscopal d'Auxerre stands at 12 Rue Lebeuf, featuring stone walls, Roman galleries, and vaulted rooms within its medieval structure.
Built in the 12th century, the palace underwent major renovations after a vault collapse in 1210 under Bishop Guillaume de Seignelay's supervision.
The episcopal palace represents the evolution of religious architecture in Burgundy, with its Roman arcades and sculpted columns from 1023.
The palace now houses administrative offices of the Yonne department and offers selected spaces for event rentals through municipal arrangements.
The building includes a synodal hall constructed by Bishop Guy de Mello, which exemplifies the architectural developments of medieval episcopal residences.
