Église Sainte-Jeanne-d'Arc de Versailles

Église Sainte-Jeanne-d'Arc de Versailles, Byzantine Revival church in Versailles, France

Église Sainte-Jeanne-d'Arc is a Catholic church in the Clagny-Glatigny district of Versailles, built of light beige brick. Its tall central facade has a large circular window in a grid of rectangular panes, a smaller arched window below, and a red double door at the base; a dark dome with a cupola rises from the crossing. The facade bears a crest inscribed with the dates 1412 and 1431.

The parish was erected on 5 January 1920, with Canon Subtil, chaplain aboard the cruiser Jeanne d'Arc, as first priest; he had vowed in 1914 to build a church if Versailles was spared siege and occupation. A temporary wooden chapel by Albert Guilbert served from 1919. The first stone was laid on 30 May 1923, the crypt inaugurated in 1924 and the church consecrated on 31 May 1926. Guilbert later built a church on the same plan at Domfront.

The parish was erected on 5 January 1920, and its first curé was Canon Subtil, naval chaplain aboard the ship Jeanne d'Arc. After Joan was canonised in Rome on 16 May 1920, he began a preparatory novena so the town would not forget the vow made to the saint. The apse holds an oil painting of four scenes from her life, signed Henriette Lebon-Delore, a pupil of Maurice Denis.

The church stands on rue Albert-Joly in the Clagny-Glatigny district, north of the château. Enter from the street through the red double door beneath the large circular window; the nave leads to the choir, where the 1934 painted apse closes the view. The crypt, inaugurated on 30 May 1924, is reached separately from the main floor.

The church's organ came from Studio 103 of Radio France: built by Erwin Müller in 1964, it was acquired by the parish in 2007 and inaugurated in September 2008. It replaced a Mutin/Cavaillé-Coll instrument given by a parishioner in 1930 for the temporary wooden chapel.
