Paroisse de Pont-Aven, Parish church in Pont-Aven, France.
Saint Joseph Church features a neo-Gothic structure with granite walls, a slate roof, and a hexagonal steeple rising above the western entrance.
The current church building, completed in 1875, replaced a small 17th-century chapel that could no longer accommodate the growing population of Pont-Aven.
The interior of the church displays three paintings by Emile Bernard and modern stained glass windows created by master glassmaker Job Guével.
The church underwent major restoration work in 2003 and 2004, including repairs to the roof, façade, bell tower, and interior decorative elements.
The narrow plot of land acquired for construction led architects to create a false transept, resulting in an unconventional architectural adaptation.
