Église Sainte-Thérèse de Rennes, Art Deco church in southern Rennes, France
The church building features a 60-meter-high spire, a Greek cross layout, and can accommodate one thousand worshippers in its spacious interior.
The construction of Sainte-Thérèse Church took place between 1934 and 1936 to serve the expanding Haut-Quineleu district in Rennes.
The interior displays mosaics by Isidore Odorico, sculptures by Albert Bourget, and paintings by Louis Garin, representing French artistic techniques.
The church opens daily from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM and visitors can reach it via Metro Line A, getting off at Clémenceau station.
Three nocturnal animal sculptures adorn the roof slopes, following the traditional gargoyle concept of protecting the sanctuary from malevolent spirits.
