Créteil Cathedral, Modern Catholic cathedral in Créteil, France
The cathedral features two cylindrical wooden hulls rising from its structure and converging above the altar, creating a central focal point in the sanctuary.
Architect Charles-Gustave Stoskopf completed the original cathedral in 1966, marking the beginning of religious modernization in this Paris suburb.
The cathedral includes a designated cultural center that provides spaces for conferences and exhibitions, connecting with the local community through various events.
The 2015 renovation doubled the capacity of the cathedral by implementing a semi-circular arrangement of benches, accommodating more attendees during religious services.
The interior features 130 glue-laminated arches made of spruce wood, creating a rhythmic pattern that transforms the spatial experience throughout the day.
