    The nave of Saint-Pierre-du-Gros-Caillou

    The present church was built between 1822 and 1826 by Étienne-Hippolyte Godde, with a plain neoclassical front and a sober interior; an aisle was added in 1913 and the chapel at the far end, on the church’s axis, in 1971. It keeps a Saint Francis of Assisi by Jean-Baptiste-Marie Pierre, a landscape decoration by Alexandre Desgoffe in the baptismal chapel, and a Way of the Cross made of branches by Ludwika Ogorzelec. In the photograph of 18 June 2024, a coffered barrel vault runs the length of the nave.
