Église Saint-Christophe-de-Javel

Paris, FR

The church of Saint-Christophe-de-Javel was built between 1926 and 1930. A former wooden chapel, built on this site in 1863, was destroyed in 1890, and a temporary chapel was used until 1898 when the church was built in 1926. The present church is the work of the architect Charles-Henri Besnard. The choir's mural, by Henri-Marcel Magne, depicts him surrounded by travellers imploring his protection, and modern means of transport (train, liner, balloon, plane, car), inspired by the district's transport industries, notably the nearby Citroën factories.

Eglise Saint-Dominique de Bonifacio

Bonifacio, FR

The church was built from the end of the 13th century, on top of an old church owned by the Knights Templar. It was in the heart of a former Dominican convent, which has now disappeared. The church has elements of Gothic style, although the sobriety of its exterior appearance recalls Romanesque architecture. The presence of elements of Gothic style is particularly rare in Corsica. It is in fact a French style imported by religious orders. It is also the largest church on the island.

Église Saint-Dominique

Église Saint-Dominique

Paris, FR

The church of Saint Dominique was built by the architect Georges Gaudibert from 1913, in reinforced concrete with a framework of bricks and agglomerated stones. It was only completed in 1921 because of the First World War. It is in a very particular Romanesque-Byzantine style and is an example of the architectural research carried out in France between 1910 and 1920. It has no bell tower and was originally intended to have a campanile, the base of which is visible from the corner of the two streets.

The church is dedicated to Saint Edward, patron saint of Edouard Bollaert, director of the Lens mining company for forty-two years.

Église Saint-Éloi

Église Saint-Éloi

Dunkerque, FR

The church of Saint-Eloi, known as the cathedral of Les Sables, dates from the middle of the 15th century. In 1558, the French led by the marshal de Thermes invaded the town and burned the church. Only the tower remained. The reconstruction of the church began around 1560 under the direction of the master-builder Jean de Renneville. The old tower, separated from the new church by part of the ruins of the first church, remained isolated and was used as a belfry. The belfry is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the title Belfries of Belgium and France.
