NOTRE-DAME-DU-HAUT CHAPEL
It's the monument that won't miss, the great Le Corbusier. The inhabitants of Ronchamp do not want a classical reconstruction for their chapel Notre-Dame-Du-Haut destroyed in 1944 by the war… The famous architect is then asked, but the Church and the artist are not always on the same wavelength. It will take several negotiations to convince everyone. Finally, he was given carte blanche in 1950. The inauguration will take place in June 1955. Futuristic forms, light games, integration into the landscape… La Chapelle de Ronchamp is a model of Le Corbusier style, now classified as UNESCO World Heritage Site. More than 80 000 visitors/year.
