What happens when two churches become one? Right here, before the remarkable Centre d’Art les Églises, you’re about to find out. The Centre d’Art les Églises isn’t your typical art venue. This space, once home to the adjoining churches of Sainte-Croix and Saint-Georges, was rescued from demolition by a forward-thinking city council. Imagine, these very walls, once destined for destruction, now resonate with contemporary art. Thanks to the ingenious work of designer Martin Szekely and architect Marc Barani, the Centre d’Art les Églises seamlessly blends its past and present. The building boasts striking architectural lines, transparent stained-glass windows, and even a tranquil jasmine garden. The Centre d’Art les Églises, opened in 2008, is a testament to the power of transformation and a unique space where art and history intertwine.
