Église Notre-Dame-de-la-Gloriette, 17th century church in central Caen, France.

The Notre-Dame-de-la-Gloriette church features a basilica layout with a nave surrounded by aisles and a slightly protruding transept.

Built by Jesuits in 1689, the church was temporarily removed from religious service during the French Revolution before returning to Catholic worship in 1802.

The church hosts weekly musical performances by the Maîtrise de Caen every Saturday at noon, continuing a strong musical tradition.

Located on Parvis Notre-Dame in Caen, visitors can contact the church at 02 31 86 35 26 for information about visits and events.

The white marble main altar, transferred from the Abbey of Women, stands beneath a baldachin commissioned by Françoise Froulay de Tessé.
