Notre-Dame du Haut in Ronchamp, France, is a renowned example of modern religious architecture designed by the celebrated architect Le Corbusier. Completed in 1955, the chapel is notable for its bold, sculptural forms and innovative use of natural light. The building features a distinctive roof that appears to float above the walls, creating a sense of openness and spirituality. The thick walls, punctuated by irregularly placed windows, allow light to filter in and create a dynamic interplay of shadows within the sanctuary.
