This famous chapel is found north-west of Belfort, in the north-east of the Franche-Comté region.

A positive shrine for enthusiasts of Le Corbusier, the Chapel Notre-Dame-du-Haut is found at Ronchamp and is among his most famous and recognised buildings.

The building, completed in 1955, is on the site of an earlier church that had been destroyed durin the Second World War. It is especially known for being extremely well suited to its landscape - it occupies a magnificent hilltop location with far-reaching views all around.

Built largely in whitewashed concrete, it is for both the external design and the way that light penetrates the interior that the building is so well acclaimed, as much as its revolutionary role in church architecture of the 20th century.

One other little highlight - the roof is designed such that the rain tumbles off onto specially placed abstract shapes, creating a pleasant effect - so you can visit even if it is raining.
