Église de la Sainte-Famille d'Annonay

The Église de la Sainte-Famille d'Annonay is a parish church in Annonay with modern architecture featuring a bell tower mounted on the gable rather than a traditional steeple. The building was constructed with contemporary materials that can be explored by visitors both inside and outside.

Construction of this church began in 1957 to serve the expanding community in the Perrières neighborhood. The first mass took place that same year, marking the start of its use as a place of worship.

The church displays stained glass windows showing religious themes that visitors can observe throughout the interior. Local materials from different regions of France were chosen to create the sacred space.

Visiting is easiest during opening hours, which typically align with services or set visiting days. A wide entrance along the main front provides easy access for most visitors.

A statue of Our Lady of the Family stands in the garden and was blessed in 1962. This statue provides a quiet spot for visitors to pause and reflect on their surroundings.
