The landscape around Chaux is wooded and gently rising in the southern foothills of the Vosges, which has shaped both the commune’s dispersed settlement and local forestry. The Savoureuse valley crosses this northern part of the Territoire de Belfort, linking rural hamlets with Belfort below the mountains. Chaux marks the transition between the Vosges uplands and the Belfort plain, along routes connecting Franche-Comté and Alsace. In nearby Belfort, the citadel and Auguste Bartholdi’s Lion of Belfort commemorate the city’s resistance during the 1870–71 siege.
