Église Sainte-Reine de Levallois-Perret, Catholic church in Levallois-Perret, France.
The Église Sainte-Reine stands at the fork where rue Paul-Vaillant-Couturier meets rue Collange. Its facade carries a Resurrection cross designed by Odette Lecerf and made by Olivier Loiseau, and a 19th-century statue-reliquary of the Virgin. The stained glass in dalle de verre comes from the Mauméjean brothers' workshop, and the Stations of the Cross were designed by painter Jean Bouvier.
The church was built in 1956 by the Œuvre des Chantiers du Cardinal, the body that funded new churches in the Paris region, and was blessed in June 1957. It belongs to the Saint-Justin parish of the Diocese of Nanterre, together with the churches of Saint-Justin and Sainte-Bernadette.
