Sainte-Jeanne-d'Arc, Minor basilica in 18th arrondissement, France

The Romanesque Revival church features a central facade with twin towers that merge into a Gothic arch, topped by three cupolas and round windows.

The basilica's construction started in 1930 after an earlier design by Auguste Perret with a 200-meter bell tower was not accepted.

The stained glass windows created by Leon Zack and the statue of Joan of Arc by Maxime Real del Sarte enhance the interior decoration.

The basilica stands at the intersection of Rue de Torcy and Rue de la Chapelle in the northern section of Paris.

The structure underwent modifications during construction, resulting in a simplified box shape with a folded-plate concrete roof designed by Pierre Isnard in 1964.
