Saint-Antoine-de-Padoue

Built in 1935 by the Chantiers du Cardinal at the request of Cardinal Verdier, in a Franciscan style, the church is the work of the architect Léon Azéma. On the flat east wall of the choir, a painting by Jean-Fleury Bernard has at its center the dying Christ on the cross. Round windows by Louis Barillet, after designs by Robert Poughéon, show scenes of the life of Christ in geometric forms, in a post-Cubist style. The Stations of the Cross, carved in relief by Raymond Delamarre and Élie-Jean Vézien, were entrusted to the sculptors in 1934 and inaugurated in 1946. Photographs of 2019 and 2024 both look into the choir and its painting.
