Orgelet (French pronunciation: [ɔʁʒəlɛ] ⓘ; Arpitan: Ourdzelet) is a commune in the Jura department in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in eastern France. It was created in 1973 by the merger of two former communes: Orgelet-le-Bourget and Sézéria. The town is recognized as a remarkable heritage site (Site patrimonial remarquable). The church Notre-Dame de l'Assomption dates from the 13th-17th century.
