Notre-Dame de Pentecôte

Notre-Dame de Pentecôte, Modern chapel in La Défense district, Puteaux, France

Notre-Dame de Pentecôte is a modern chapel with a cubic form that rises prominently from the landscape and is defined by a large glass screen on one side. Inside, the structure houses a prayer space, reception areas, bookstore, meeting rooms, and dining facilities organized across multiple levels.

The building was completed in the early 2000s and represented one of the first new religious structures built in France as the new millennium began. It succeeded an earlier prayer space and marked a turning point in how religious buildings were designed in the region.

The interior decoration was created by artists whose works fill the space with meaning and invite reflection. The artistic choices use light and materials in ways that create a living, breathing environment for visitors.

The building is designed to be accessible, with facilities to accommodate visitors with disabilities throughout the space. The different functional areas are clearly organized to make it easy for visitors to find their way.

Rather than functioning as a traditional parish church, it operates as an open space for professionals and business people from the nearby commercial district. The focus is on integrating spiritual reflection into work life and encouraging dialogue about faith in modern contexts.
