Église Saint-Clément de Metz, Baroque church in Pontiffroy district, Metz, France
The Saint-Clement Church features three equal naves with cross-ribbed vaults supported by composite capitals and lateral buttresses for structural reinforcement.
Construction of the church began between 1680 and 1687 with the nave and choir, while work on the front sections and facade continued until 1737.
The church maintains elements from both Gothic and Baroque architectural periods, with pointed arched windows featuring single mullions that provide natural illumination.
The building stands at the intersection of Rue des Benedictins and Rue Chambiere, accessible through Metz public transportation system.
The church interior contains classical columns with curved shafts decorated with sculpted motifs, supporting Gothic vaults in an unusual architectural combination.
