Saint-Christophe-de-Javel, Paris
Roman Catholic churches in the 15th arrondissement of Paris
Saint-Christophe-de-Javel is a Roman-Catholic church located at 4 rue Saint-Christophe in the 15th arrondissement of Paris. It was constructed between 1926 and 1930 in the newly industralized neighborhood of Paris by the architect Charles-Henri Besnard (1881-1946), a follower of the architect and historian Viollet-le-Duc. While the church architecture is inspired by the Gothic architecture of the 13th century, it was constructed using a modern material, reinforced concrete, and made an innovative use of molded cement for the decoration of the facade and interior.
