Église Saint-Pierre-et-Saint-Paul de Maubeuge, Parish church in Maubeuge, France

The building features a 43-meter bell tower with a cylindrical staircase leading to the carillon and concrete facades with hammered finish surfaces.

The church construction began in 1955 under architect André Lurçat's direction as part of the post-war reconstruction program and received consecration in 1958.

The entrance porch tympanum displays a mosaic created by Schmidt-Chevallier based on Jean Lurçat's designs, depicting stories of Saints Peter and Paul.

The nave accommodates 1000 worshippers and receives natural light through large glass cube windows and a zenithal oculus in the choir section.

Two statues of apostles Peter and Paul, measuring 2.5 meters in height by sculptor Felix Roulin, stand at the summit of the main facade.
