Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-Consolation, Memorial chapel in 8th arrondissement, France.

The Notre-Dame-de-Consolation Chapel features neo-baroque decorations, cenotaph urns around the nave, and a dove symbol above the main altar.

Built in 1901 by architect Albert Guilbert, the chapel stands on the former site of Bazar de la Charité where 117 people died in an 1897 fire.

Located at 23 rue Jean Goujon, the chapel accommodates 150 people in the nave and additional 150 in the crypt for religious services.

Display cases preserve artifacts recovered from the Bazar de la Charité fire, while memorial passages list the names of all 117 victims.
