Chapelle Saint-Martin

The Chapelle Saint-Martin, located at 100 Route de la Gorra in Peille, France, was designed by architect Georges Buzzi and constructed between 1951 and 1952. The chapel's design features a dynamic combination of forms: a nave with a large sloped roof and a prominent overhanging semi-circular awning made of raw concrete, and a bell tower constructed from local stone, topped with a hollow concrete spire shaped like a cross. The altar is crafted from a large tree stump retrieved from the beaches of Nice. Two stained-glass windows adorn the side walls, one with bright, contrasting colors and the other in neutral gray tones. (culture.gouv.fr)
