Église Saint-Honoré d'Amiens, Art Deco church in Amiens, France.

Église Saint-Honoré is a church building featuring Art Deco design with three monumental doors decorated with mosaics representing four bishops. Inside, a square central nave with two side aisles is illuminated by colored stained glass windows created by master glazier Joseph Archepel.

The original 19th-century church was destroyed during German bombing in 1940. Its reconstruction between 1957 and 1961 under architect Paul Tournon created the modern building that stands today.

Saint-Honoré, a 6th-century bishop of Amiens born in Port-le-Grand, is the patron saint of bakers, pastry cooks, millers and flour merchants, and a wooden statue of him by Amiens sculptor Jean-Pierre Facquier stands inside. The facade mosaics were made by Florence Tournon-Branly, daughter of architect Paul Tournon, showing four bishops around a cross and dove.

The church stands at the entrance to the Faubourg de Beauvais, beside the inner boulevards near Amiens city centre. The main entrance is through three monumental doors on the facade; a gallery above them leads to an outdoor pulpit reached by two side doors. The bell tower with its baptismal chapel stands north of the apse.

The seven-metre Notre-Dame de France on the bell tower is a replica. In April 1982 a photographer using a telephoto lens spotted cracks and sagging in the original, sculpted by Roger de Villiers; it was taken down and moved in 1988 to Baillet-en-France, honouring a wish of Archbishop Jean Verdier.
