Located at the western edge of Dijon, Chartreuse de Champmol once served as the burial place of the Dukes of the House of Valois. Today it houses a psychiatric clinic. The site displays a church door with magnificent sculptures and the famous “Well of Moses”. They serve as significant examples of medieval art. Moreover, they are the only two surviving artworks of Claus Sluter. Situated on the outskirts of Dijon, Champmol was a Carthusian monastery consisting of a church, a ducal oratory, ducal tombs and a courtyard bordered by small houses.The Well of Moses is a hexagonal well with columns elaborately decorated topped by angels and statues. These statues depict the Six Testament prophets: Moses, Isaiah, Daniel, Zechariah, Jeremiah and David.
