Placed under the patronage of Saint-Philippe and Saint-Jacques, the church of Châteauneuf dates from the end of the 15th century and the beginning of the 16th century. Dedicated to St Philip the Galilean and St James the Greater, whose relics can be found in Santiago de Compostela, the church was for a long time a branch of that of Vandenesse, the mother church in which the Lords of Châteauneuf were buried as early as 1300, and it was not until 1572 that it was established as a curial parish. Formerly under the patronage of the chapter of Autun, and dependent on the archpriesthood of Pouilly-en-Auxois, the parish was not attached to the diocese of Dijon until the French Revolution.
