Fontaines (French pronunciation: [fɔ̃tɛn] ⓘ) is a commune in the Saône-et-Loire department in the region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in eastern France.

Formerly known as Fontanæ then Fontes, the village owes its name to the numerous springs in the area.

The village belonged to the Lords of Fountains, who built a castle to the bishops of Chalon, who freed the inhabitants in 1299.

There was one prioress Benedictine, a chapel (Saint Nicolas) and several washhouses.
