Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix de la Brèche, Twentieth-century chapel in Hermanville-sur-Mer, France.

The chapel features a triangular stone façade crowned by a concrete bell tower and displays continuous bands of stained glass along its walls.

Built between 1947 and 1957, the chapel incorporates architectural elements that reflect the post-World War II reconstruction period in Normandy.

The stained glass windows, created by Robert Devoucoux, combine religious imagery with depictions of the D-Day landings at Hermanville.

Located at 6 Rue de la Brèche, the chapel maintains regular opening hours and welcomes visitors interested in religious architecture.

The entrance portal includes carved representations of fishermen and shepherds, with a lintel bearing the inscription 'Te Deum laudamus'.
