Built between 1956 and 1958 the Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Sauvageon stands before us. This chapel served the northern part of Brunoy a rapidly growing area. Its simple architecture lets in plenty of light. The Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Sauvageon wasn’t always as it is today. In 1992 Father Paul Salaün oversaw renovations. New stained-glass windows depicting the seven seals of the Apocalypse were installed. A beautiful Way of the Cross painted by Gisèle Gautier-Doré was added. A pear wood statue of the Virgin and Child sculpted by Jean-François Simon completed the transformation. This was a generous gift to the parish. The Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Sauvageon received a new electronic organ in 2010. The Laurent family of Brunoy donated it. This replaced an older organ originally intended for Saint Pierre Fourier church. The new organ has three keyboards and 46 stops. It offers greater versatility than its predecessor. The Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Sauvageon was inaugurated on February 8 1959 by Bishop Renard of Versailles. The Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Sauvageon seats approximately 220 people. It’s a testament to community faith and artistic dedication. The Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Sauvageon remains a vibrant center of worship in Brunoy. Its history echoes through its architecture and art. It is a place of peace and reflection. The Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Sauvageon’s story continues.
