Chapelle Saint-Sauveur d'Issy-les-Moulineaux, Maronite chapel in Issy-les-Moulineaux, France.
Chapelle Saint-Sauveur d'Issy-les-Moulineaux is a Maronite chapel located within the grounds of Corentin Celton Hospital, featuring architectural details from the 19th century. The structure displays design elements typical of that era, with spaces arranged for religious worship and community gatherings.
The chapel was built and consecrated in 1863, originally serving the hospital community as a religious space. The Maronite Catholic community later adapted it to their spiritual traditions, transforming its purpose while preserving its structure.
The chapel is now the Maronite Church of Saints-Sauveur-et-Maroun, re-consecrated in January 2018 by Bishop Nasser Gemayel after being decommissioned in 2004 and used as a cultural space. Maronite Catholics worship here within the Corentin-Celton hospital grounds, and the façade was fully cleaned the same year.
The chapel sits within hospital grounds and can be reached through the main entrance of Corentin Celton Hospital. It is advisable to contact the hospital ahead of time, as access may be restricted during certain periods.
The chapel was decommissioned in 2004 and turned into a cultural space before being reassigned to the Maronite Catholics and reconsecrated by Bishop Nasser Gemayel in January 2018. A full cleaning of the façade followed the same year, which is why the stone looks newer than the 1863 consecration date suggests.
