Nef Lucien Belloni, Sports stadium in L'Île-Saint-Denis, France.

The Grande Nef de l'Île-des-Vannes features a distinctive boat-shaped structure measuring 98 meters long, 51 meters wide, and 26 meters high with a hyperbolic paraboloid roof.

Constructed between 1968 and 1971, the stadium was built on former Menier chocolate factory grounds and received heritage status recognition from the Ministry of Culture in 2007.

The stadium undergoes renovations for the 2024 Olympics and will serve as a training facility for approximately 2,000 athletes during the games.

The structure incorporates a 3,000-square-meter roof composed of tensioned cables stretched between two oblique arches, demonstrating post-war architectural innovation.
