Le Corbusier's Chapel of Notre-Dame du Haut, a UNESCO-listed landmark of 20th-century sacred architecture built in stone and concrete between 1953 and 1955, stands on a hill above this pocket-sized town in eastern France's Haute-Saône. Ronchamp also carries a substantial coal-mining history, with two former mine shafts now open as heritage sites and a mining museum founded in 1976. The town sits in the rolling Vosges foothills, crossed by the Rahin river, between the Vosges and Jura mountain ranges.
