Saint-Charles Church, Catholic church in Monte Carlo, Monaco

The Saint-Charles Church stands on Avenue Sainte-Charles with a Renaissance architectural design and a 30-meter bell tower displaying French influences.

Prince Charles III commissioned the construction of Saint-Charles Church in 1879, and the building was completed on Easter Monday, March 26, 1883.

The church maintains the tradition of conducting the French Riviera's only English-language Catholic services, making it a center for international worship.

The church contains nineteen stained glass windows that illuminate the nave, while a gilded chandelier from the Prince's Palace adorns the ceiling.

The interior features a 17th-century gilded wooden altar with cabled columns and statues, transferred from the former Saint-Nicolas church in Monaco Town.
