Chapelle Notre-Dame du Rosaire de Lille

Chapelle Notre-Dame du Rosaire is a chapel in Lille featuring a striking red-orange brick facade with a forged iron cross and three large wooden doors at the entrance. The interior contains a carved stone altar and benefits from natural light in certain areas of the space.

Construction of the chapel began in 2004 and was completed with a consecration ceremony in 2005, making it a relatively recent addition to Lille's religious buildings. The project emerged from local demand for a space dedicated to traditional worship practices.

The chapel serves traditional Latin Mass communities and displays handcrafted religious art including polychrome statues and terracotta Stations of the Cross. These elements show how the space brings together religious practice and local artistic craftsmanship.

The chapel sits near the Saint-Maurice Pellevoisin metro station for easy access. Be aware that interior lighting is dimmed throughout, with distinct light variations between different zones of the space.

The altar unusually combines white stone blocks with blue Tournai stone for the table, a rare material pairing in contemporary religious architecture. This blend gives the sacred space a distinctive visual character.
