Lycée Nicéphore-Niépce, Technical high school in Chalon-sur-Saône, France.

Lycée Nicéphore-Niépce occupies the pink 1934 building of the Cité scolaire Niépce-Balleure on Avenue Boucicaut in Chalon-sur-Saône. Its tall central bay, carved with "ÉCOLE NATIONALE PROFESSIONNELLE", rises above two side wings; a round clock sits above a grid of glass blocks, and a relief panel of carved figures and tools runs over the dark green entrance doors.

The École nationale professionnelle was created by the 1930 finance law, replacing the École pratique du commerce et de l'industrie. The pink main building was begun in 1932 and opened in October 1934; the town gave it Nicéphore Niépce's name in 1933, the centenary of his death. It became a state technical lycée in 1962, and the 1934 building was inscribed as a monument historique on 4 October 2012.

The school's name honours two local figures: Nicéphore Niépce, credited with early photography near Chalon-sur-Saône, and Pierre de Saint-Julien de Balleure, a Renaissance Burgundian historian who died in the city. The municipality chose Niépce's name in 1933, the centenary of his death. The facade reliefs by sculptors Jan and Joël Martel depict the trades taught inside.

The school is located on Avenue Boucicaut and is primarily used for educational activities, though its exterior and architectural design can be viewed from outside. Since it remains an active school, visitors should plan visits outside of class hours or contact the institution in advance.

The school bears the name of Nicéphore Niépce, a local inventor who pioneered early photography in the region. This choice of name reflects the school's connection to innovation and technical advancement rooted in the area's history.
