Origin and history

The Church of Notre-Dame-du-Perpetuel-Secours is a religious building located in Puteaux, in the diocese of Nanterre. It is distinguished by its modern architecture, marked by a rectangular structure in bricks and concrete, without a traditional bell tower. At the front of the building, a fluted concrete column suggests a possible future extension, such as a campanile or a monumental cross.

The recent history of the church was marked by a complete reconstruction in 1983, accompanied by the creation of an adjacent parish centre. This project reflects an adaptation to the contemporary needs of the local community, while integrating sober and functional architectural elements. No additional information is available on the older origins of the building or on the actors involved in its reconstruction.

Located avenue du Général-de-Gaulle, this church is part of the urban landscape of Puteaux, a commune of Hauts-de-Seine in Île-de-France. Its absence of a bell tower and its clean style make it an atypical example of 20th century religious architecture, responding to the liturgical and social evolutions of the era.
