Église Sainte-Thérèse-de-l'Enfant-Jésus de Wattrelos, Art Deco church in Wattrelos, France.
The Église Sainte-Thérèse-de-l'Enfant-Jésus is an Art Deco church built from stone and cement with geometric patterns and ornamental details throughout. The structure displays clean lines and stylized decoration that reflect the architectural vision of its era.
The church was built in 1927 under architect Charles Bourgeois and designed as a new religious building. Official recognition as a historical monument came in 2005, acknowledging its architectural importance.
Rose motifs appear throughout the interior in ceramics and stained glass windows, reflecting Theresian religious symbolism. These decorative elements shape how visitors experience the space inside.
The church sits on Rue de Lisieux and welcomes visitors interested in exploring religious architecture. You can visit during regular service times and discover the interior details at your own pace.
The construction was funded by parish priest Abbé Delebart, who used wealth from his textile industry background and donations from parishioners. This personal commitment allowed the creation of an architectural statement beyond a simple village church.
