'''Chalon-sur-Saone''' is a city in [[France]], in the Saône-et-Loire département, of which it is a sous-préfecture. It is the largest city in the department; however, the department's préfecture (capital) resides in the smaller commune of Mâcon. Chalon-sur-Saône lies in the south of the [[Burgundy]] region of France. It is located on the Saône river, and was once a busy port, acting as a distribution point for local wines which were sent up and down the Saône river and the Canal du Centre.

=='''HISTORY OF CHALON-SUR-SAONE'''==
'''First built alongside the Saône about 3000 years ago''', the town was a naval base during Antiquity, the place of big fairs during the Middle Ages, a trading centre in modern and contemporary times. The bishopric of Chalon-sur-Saône, '''a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Lyon since Roman times''', was merged into the diocese of Autun shortly after the French Revolution.

Chalon is best known as the birthplace of photography. Its most famous resident, Nicéphore Niépce also has a lycée (secondary school) named after him. There is a museum which contains some early photography relics, located on the Quai des Messageries in the town, containing more than two million photographs and many old artefacts such as cameras and other equipment for old and modern photography.

Another famous resident is Dominique Vivant Denon (1747-1825) who was involved in the creation of the Louvre Museum, converting the palace into a Museum after the French Revolution.
