Église Notre-Dame d'Obezine, Neo-Gothic church in Angoulême, France.

The Notre-Dame d'Obezine church rises 68 meters high, featuring pointed arches, crossed vaults, and large rose windows that illuminate the interior space.

Construction began in 1895 with the nave, followed by a crypt until 1914, the choir in 1929, and the final addition of the spire in 1960.

The Maumejean brothers created stained glass windows in 1942, depicting scenes from the New Testament and representations of contemporary saints.

The church welcomes visitors every Wednesday from 14:00 to 16:00 and Saturday from 15:00 to 18:00, with guided tours available for groups upon request.

The metal and concrete framework supporting the brick vault system demonstrates an innovative combination of traditional and modern construction techniques.
