Église Notre-Dame de Cotatay

Religion · by Joseph Belmont · 1963

rue de la Chapelle ; rue Benoît-Frachon, Chambon-Feugerolles, France

The Notre-Dame de Cotatay Church was built between 1963 and 1964 by chief architect Joseph Belmont. This understated tent-shaped structure, made of metal, reflects its industrial surroundings. It intelligently combines traditional forms with modern techniques, providing a space that meets the needs of its users. The overall layout was designed to align with contemporary liturgical practices. The aisles form a unique transition between the secular space of the street and the sacred interior of the church, facilitating a series of gradual approaches from the street to the church itself.
