Église Sainte-Anne de Saint-Nazaire, Catholic church building in Saint-Nazaire, France.

The rectangular structure features two distinctive cylindrical elements on its facade, adorned with mosaic decorations and a 39-meter campanile pointing skyward.

The church construction began with the laying of its foundation stone in April 1956, opening to the public in 1959 as compensation for the demolished Matte chapel.

The interior showcases a monolithic altar by Maxime Adam-Tessier with abstract patterns, complemented by Serge Rezvani's varied stained glass windows directing light toward it.

Located at 28 Boulevard Jean Mermoz in Saint-Nazaire, the church received recognition as a Historical Monument in May 2019, ensuring its preservation.

The building's design omits traditional side aisles and transepts, incorporating a flat roof and a campanile topped with a bible symbol facing the sky.
