The church of Saint-Marcel
Delémont is the capital of the Swiss canton of Jura. The church of Saint-Marcel, constructed between 1762 and 1767 from plans by Pierre-Francois Paris, stands in the city. Following the coronation of the statue of Notre-Dame in 1869, the chapel became the most popular pilgrimage site in the Catholic Jura.
