So named because of its location at the foot of the Piton des Neiges, the church is built in the Art Deco style of the 1930s. Its half-moon façade makes it original. The nave and choir were made by cabinetmakers from the Rivière-Saint-Louis region. Before entering, on the left, the tomb of Father Boiteau, a builder much appreciated by the villagers. When his death was announced, the faithful built the tomb in a single night. For some, it has miraculous virtues. Since the year 2000, the church has been listed in the inventory of historical monuments.

L'église domine majestueusement le village. Du haut des marches , jolie vue sur le quartier. Ne pas oublier de jeter un oeil au rond point devant et aux statues qui se trouvent sur son centre reconstituant le mot CILAOS.

Due to its beauty, illuminates the village of Cilaos, already well with its magnificent huts and its location in the heart of the mountains. At sunrise, in the day or at sunset, this superb white church is a treat as well outside and inside, where the work of wood is magnificent.
