The Michelin Guide's review
This astonishing church (1924-26) is one of the first in France designed in reinforced concrete. In the neo-Byzantine style, it is dominated by a tall cement bell tower. Inside, an octagonal dome rests on four semicircular arches that intersect to form a vast square nave with yellow and blue stained-glass windows. The lower part of the walls is decorated with mosaics and, in the choir, a large fresco depicts Christ in Majesty. The church has also kept its Art Deco furniture.
