Carré Sainte-Anne, Arts centre in central Montpellier, France

The Carré Sainte-Anne features high ceilings, large exhibition halls, and a prominent clock tower reaching 66 meters into the Montpellier skyline.

Originally constructed as a neo-Gothic church in 1866 under Mayor Jules Pagézy, the building underwent conversion into an exhibition space in 1991.

The centre presents exhibitions of regional and international artists, including works by Othoniel, Garouste, Desgrandchamps, Combas, Di Rosa, and Toguo.

Currently closed for structural renovations costing 4.7 million euros, the arts centre plans to reopen its doors to visitors by the end of 2024.

The building stands on 9-meter-deep wooden pile foundations, which caused a 10-centimeter settlement of its 6000-ton bell tower over time.
