Église Notre-Dame des Mineurs de Waziers, Catholic church in Waziers, France.

This eclectic style church features a large single nave with reinforced concrete arches reminiscent of coal mine galleries.

Built between 1923 and 1927 by architects Louis-Marie Cordonnier and his son Louis-Stanislas to serve Polish miners who settled in the region.

The interior decorations incorporate Polish craft motifs in the pulpit while colored mosaics adorn the white stone altars.

The truncated and crenellated bell tower, topped with a thin spire, structures the three surrounding mining communities.
