About edit

The monument of Salazar and Marguerite de la Trémoille. On the north side of the nave stands a rather curious monument, consisting of two rooms facing each other: a canopy surmounted by a statue without a head and a magnificent altar altarpiece. The original set was erected by Archbishop Tristan de Salazar(1474-1519) to serve as a burial place for his parents (who in fact never rested at this place). In the past, the chapter of a church sold the space around the columns of the nave for the happy buyers to create a private chapel. He also sold the space between flying buttresses for the same purpose (see the church Notre-Dame in Dole). This Salazar chapel, leaning against a strong pile, is the only one remaining in the cathedral. The others disappeared in the 18th century. It was in 1493 that Tristan Salazar gave the necessary funds to celebrate two daily Masses for the salvation of the soul of his parents. The altar was built first against the pillar of the nave, then a marble table on four pillars, with the statues of his father and mother(Jean de Salazar and his wife Marguerite de la Trémoille). In 1514, the sculptor Guillaume Chevaleaurealized, for the altarpiece of the pillar, three great figures (Saint John the Baptist, Saint Stephen and a Virgin with the Child), as well as eight smaller ones. Two of the great figures remain the Virgin and Saint Stephen. A statue of Saint Savinien replaces that of Saint John the Baptist, stolen in 1534. (Later, it is the replacement statue that was also stolen). These statues are dominated by three canopies sumptuously carved in stone. The author of this masterpiece is unknown. Let us conclude by stating that the statue without a head on the canopy represents Jean Salazar, the father of the archbishop. The statue of his wife has disappeared.
