Église Saint-Louis de Montrapon

Religion · by Caisne Robert le, Caisne Rémi le · 1962

Besançon, France

The Église Saint-Louis de Montrapon, designed by Caisne Robert le and Caisne Rémi le in 1962, is a notable example of 1950s brutalist architecture. Its design highlights the use of raw materials, particularly concrete and stone, skillfully executed with careful formwork. The precise relationships between architectural elements are evident, particularly in the articulation of the supports for the canopy that shelters the entrance and the beams that uphold the roof structure. This church reflects the principles of brutalism through its unadorned aesthetic and functional design.
