Église Saint-Émilien, Catholic church in Hauts-Pavés - Saint-Félix district, Nantes, France

The Saint-Émilien Church features two towers on its facade, with statues of Saint Louis and Saint Émilien placed in dedicated niches.

The church was consecrated on December 7, 2019, replacing a previous religious space that operated in a former factory during the 1980s.

The church follows the Tridentine rite under the Priory of Saint-Louis, which belongs to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X.

Three bells ring at the church: a 640 kg bell dedicated to the Virgin Mary, a 450 kg bell for Saint Émilien, and a 330 kg bell for Saint Louis.

Saint Émilien, to whom the church is dedicated, was an 8th-century bishop who died in battle against Saracen forces near Nantes.
