Église La Pentecôte de Port Galand

Religion · by Philippe Vuarnesson · 1967

2 rue de la Sarrazine, Bourg-la-Reine, France

The La Pentecôte Church in Port-Galand, designed by architect Philippe Vuarnesson in 1967, is situated at the border of Bourg-la-Reine and Bagneux amid residential buildings. Its hexagonal plan features a ground floor constructed from cyclopean stone and cement, with an upper section made of brick. The church is topped with a copper roof, whose varying heights correspond to its hexagonal shape. Inside the worship hall on the first floor, a radiant wooden framework of intersecting beams converges towards a central tie beam, left exposed. The roof's folds allow for triangular windows adorned with orange stained glass to be integrated into the upper walls.
