Chalon-sur-Sa么ne, birthplace of Nic茅phore Niepce (inventor of photography), is the department's most important city. One of the city's landmarks is the Tour du Doyenn茅 and its garden on 脦le Saint-Laurent. Comprising over 20,000 plants, its decor changes every summer. From the coul茅e verte to the prairie Saint-Nicolas, this natural setting allows nature-lovers to take full advantage of the riches of the Sa么ne and its heritage. Other points of interest include the golf course with its rose garden and arboretum, the Georges Nouelle park with its geo-botanical garden, and the Bellevue park with its biodiversity trail.
