Chapelle Corneille, Concert hall and chapel in Rouen, France

The Chapelle Corneille is a former place of worship in Rouen that now serves as a modern concert hall and performance venue. Inside, around 600 seats combine flamboyant architectural features with technical facilities for musical and theatrical events.

The building was originally constructed as the Church of Saint-Louis and received historical monument status in 1910. Over the course of the 20th century, it was gradually transformed into a cultural space until it became the concert hall we see today.

The chapel bears the name of the renowned playwright Pierre Corneille, who was born in Rouen. Visitors sense the connection to the city's theatrical heritage, which shapes the character of this cultural venue.

The venue sits centrally in Rouen and is easily accessible via Rue du Maulévrier. Current event information and practical details are available online, so advance research is recommended.

The interior preserves remarkable vaulting structures and decoration from its time as a church, which today are subtly enhanced with modern acoustic engineering. This blend of old and new makes the space acoustically efficient without obscuring its original beauty.
