Où est le pinacle ?

Où est le pinacle ?
La chapelle Jeanne d'Arc (XIXème s.) de style négothique est remarquable par ses proportions, sa rosace en façade et ses vitraux. Elle comportait un campanile et des pinacles. L'ancien édifice religieux est désacralisé; aujourd'hui c'est un centre d'art avec expositions régulières, il devient le 11ème Centre d’Art Contemporain d’Intérêt National de France.

WHERE IS THE PINNACLE? This chapel (19th C.) in neo-gothic style is noteworthy for its proportions, its rose window and its stained glass windows. It used to have a bell tower and spires. The former religious building is desecrated, today it's an art center with regular exhibitions, and since 2017 becomes the 11th Center for Contemporary Art of National Interest in France.

Merci Marie-Claire, et peut-être le bout était rongé par les caprices du temps ?...

Merci Joe, en effet, j'étais ravie d'avoir trouvé le lampadaire juste là, pour "meubler" un peu l'image....

A lovely image of a wonderful building, perhaps the spire had become unsafe, the spire was removed from St. Mary de Castro in Leicester because it was in danger of falling and they hadn't the money to repair it, the stones have been saved just in case they can afford to rebuild it one day, there are a couple of photos on my page 58

Thanks Peter. I don't know what happened to the spire, I would have liked to find some documentation on this subject, but - nothing. Anyway, the chapel is really beautiful.

Danke Wilhelm, seitlich gibt es auch wunderschöne Buntglasfenster, vor allem von innen, wenn die Sonne hinein leuchtet, sieht es toll aus.

Combien y a-t-il de telles chapelles en France ?

Christa1004 club has replied to Andrew Ashdown
Merci Andrew, j'ignore combien, mais selon Wikipédia, il existe près de 100 000 édifices religieux en France (soit en moyenne 3 par commune). Il s'agit de 45 000 églises paroissiales ainsi que de cathédrales, abbayes, monastères, couvents, chapelles, etc.
