Église Notre-Dame-des-Anges de Collioure, Baroque church near Boramar Beach, Collioure, France

Église Notre-Dame-des-Anges is a single-nave church built from 1687 on a reef at the mouth of Collioure's port, its south wall facing the town and the Royal Castle. Its cylindrical bell tower, the former lighthouse, rises from the water on three sides and is capped by a tiled dome with a white clock face. The nave has a barrel-vaulted ceiling and a gilded baroque altarpiece.

The church was built between 1684 and 1691, incorporating an ancient defensive tower that once guided maritime navigation. This earlier structure played an important role in the harbor's operations for centuries.

Inside, the Chapel of the Precious Blood holds a 1708 retable shaped like a large canopy, decorated with medallions of the Passion emblems — nail, hammer, pincers, ladder, sponge, reed, vinegar, gall, lance, whip, column, tunic, lanterns, rooster and sword — flanked by two winged angels, with a large crucifix by Joseph Sunyer.

The church stands at the north-east end of Collioure's old town, in the Port d'Amunt, with its bell tower rising straight from the water on three sides. The south wall, built first from 1687, faces the town and the Royal Castle. The building is a classified historical monument, and its foundations in the sea have caused structural problems over time.

The bell tower is the former Torre del Far, a lighthouse of the town walls that signalled the harbour's position with smoke by day and fire by night. Vauban judged the lighthouse useless once he favoured Port-Vendres, so it was handed to the parish and topped with a Tuscan-inspired cupola around 1809.
