Notre-Dame-du-Rosaire

Built in yellow brick in 1911 by Pierre Sardou, Notre-Dame-du-Rosaire has a simple, clear volume inspired by Florentine Romanesque, simplified further after the Second Vatican Council and again in 1996. Its original windows, Stations of the Cross and triptych are by Henri-Marcel Magne, and a statue of Notre-Dame-des-Nations by J. Pyrz stands for the diversity of the district’s population. In the photograph, round arches line the nave and lead the eye to the rose window over the choir.
