Église Notre-Dame-de-Cougnes de La Rochelle, Gothic parish church in La Rochelle, France.

The Notre-Dame-de-Cougnes church features a square bell tower with slate spires and maintains a classical architectural style from the 17th century.

Originally built in 1077 as a Cluniac priory, the church underwent reconstruction in 1653 after suffering damage during the Religious Wars of 1568.

The church houses a notable pipe organ from 1850 with 35 stops, enabling performances of French classical music from the 18th to 20th centuries.

Located at 57 Rue Alcide d'Orbigny, the church holds regular religious services and remains open to visitors interested in religious architecture.

In 2019, the church received a large fresco created by artist Amaury Dubois from Lille, adding contemporary art to its traditional interior.
