Église Notre-Dame du Raincy, Modern church in Le Raincy, France
The Notre-Dame church features thin concrete walls, stained glass windows, and a central bell tower reaching 50 meters in height.
Auguste Perret designed and built this religious structure between 1922 and 1923 using prefabricated reinforced concrete elements, marking a technical revolution.
The church received recognition as a historical monument in 1966, highlighting its influence on 20th-century religious architecture.
Natural light flows through large windows created by artist Marguerite Huré, illuminating the concrete interior spaces throughout different times of day.
The structure demonstrates the first complete use of exposed reinforced concrete in French religious architecture, without any decorative coverings.
