    Perhaps the most famous modern church, designed by Le Corbusier, built in 1950-55, an architectural icon. And, when it's quiet, a nice place to stay. The interior is particularly enchanting, with its sloping floor following the terrain.
    Located on GR 59.

      Enchanting place with a beautiful church by Le Corbusier. There is a pulpit outside for outdoor worship.

        Notre-Dame-du-Haut pilgrimage chapel, 1950
        The Notre-Dame-du-Haut chapel in Ronchamp is the icon of Christian sacred architecture that revolutionized church building in the 20th century.
        The chapel is in a dominant position on a hill at the Burgundian Gate near Belfort. Apart from its rather bare summit, this hill is wooded, as are the neighboring hills. Le Corbusier took into account the trees, the views into the distance and the horizon line in his design.


        The basic features of the design for the chapel were created in just a few days: an asymmetrical building, curved walls, vaulted by a roof whose shape is reminiscent of the shell of a crab. The asymmetry broke with the traditional idea of a cruciform church floor plan. A unified church space was created, without a side or transept, which is nevertheless oriented towards the east.
