Gazing at Notre-Dame du Perpétueel Secours, can you imagine it bathed in the warm glow of the Mediterranean sun? This Art Deco masterpiece, designed by architect Jules Febvre, stands proudly on Boulevard du Mont-Boron. Notre-Dame du Perpétueel Secours was completed in 1927. Its unique design blends reinforced concrete with Byzantine influences. The domed roof and centered floor plan evoke a sense of timeless grandeur. Look closely at the cornices. They are adorned with intricate, stylized motifs. These designs, created using the sgraffito technique, were meticulously restored in 2023 as part of a diocesan project. The sgraffito process involves scratching through a white topcoat to reveal a black or colored layer underneath, creating stunning visual effects. This recent renovation also included a facelift for the dome and facade and a refurbishment of the square in front of the church. Notre-Dame du Perpétueel Secours now shines with a vibrant ochre-yellow hue, visible from afar. The church stands as a testament to both its rich history and its vibrant present.
