Baume-les-Dames (French pronunciation: [bom le dam]) is a commune in the Doubs department in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region in eastern France.

The French mineralogist and chemist Jacques-Joseph Ébelmen (1814–1852), the writer and poet Charles-Émilien Thuriet (1832–1920) and the archaeologist Gustave Fougères (1863–1927) were all born in Baume-les-Dames.

In 1973 the former commune of Champvans-lès-Baume was absorbed by Baume-les-Dames.
