Église Notre-Dame-de-Pellevoisin de Lille, Byzantine Revival church in Lille, France.

The church exhibits red brick and white stone construction, featuring architectural elements inspired by Byzantine and Romanesque traditions throughout its structure.

Construction of the church began in 1906 under architect Louis Marie Cordonnier, with its inauguration in 1911 facing opposition due to church-state separation laws.

The church contains a marble statue of the Virgin Mary sculpted from Carrara marble by Hippolyte Lefèbvre, along with depictions of Pellevoisin.

Located between Leroy, Lequenne, and Mourcou streets in the Saint-Maurice Pellevoisin district, the church belongs to the deanery of Marcq-en-Barœul.

The building lacks a bell tower due to ground instability concerns, distinguishing it from typical church designs of its period.
