Église Saint-Ferdinand-des-Ternes, Modernist church in 17th arrondissement, Paris, France

The Saint-Ferdinand-des-Ternes Church features three domes, stone facades, and large windows that flood interior spaces with natural light.

Construction of the church began in 1937, continuing through World War II with interruptions, until its final completion and inauguration in 1957.

Eleven different artists contributed to the church's decoration, creating religious artworks in various chapels under sculptor-painter Pierre Dionisi's coordination.

The church holds regular masses at 9:00, 10:00, 11:00, 12:00, and 18:30 on Sundays, with additional services in the crypt during weekends.

The church crypt stands as the sole location in Paris dedicated to Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, featuring decorative work by artist Angel Zarraga.
