The Church of Notre-Dame de la Salette, located at 40 Rue de Cronstadt in Paris, was designed by architect Henri Colboc and completed in 1965. The structure features a circular plan with a white concrete exterior, topped by a ribbed, truncated cone-shaped roof measuring 32 meters in diameter and 17 meters in height. Sixteen 4-meter-high pillars support the roof, creating a console and defining a surrounding ambulatory. The building includes sixteen slender vertical windows adorned with abstract stained glass by Paul Martineau, executed by the Boutzen workshops. The entrance is highlighted by a concrete screen filled with glass, crafted by Joseph Archepel. (monumentaire.com)
