Église Saint-Rémy

Religion · by Yves Cochepain, Henri Tougard · 1954

rue des Tisserands, Quibou, France

The church in Quibou was reconstructed in 1954 by architects Henri Tougard and Yves Cochepain, incorporating existing elements and adding a new choir. A concrete structure, supported by four octagonal reinforced concrete columns, holds up the new framework. The volume of the choir is enclosed by a blind apse wall made of exposed stone, featuring some fishbone courses. The south and north side facades are adorned with large concrete screens that contrast with the stone of the former Gothic church. This bright space is further enhanced by a blue ceiling and dark red beams.
