The Architectural Project
Henry GONOT and Philippe MARCENAC
are the two architects whose projects have been held.
NOTRE-DAME-Du-VAL is the church of the future with it's Dome of forty metres diameter
and 12 meters high - with it's tall bell tower and its glass arrow reaching up to
thirty-five meters.
Capacity to greet 1100 persons.
The Symbolic
NOTRE-DAME-Du-VAL proposes a symbolic lecture of it's main architecture.
Therefore, the circle of its dome carries the symbol of the community of christians altogether.
The church bell and it's arrow flying represents the momentum of faith.
Other symbols will come out to bring out the edifice.
Nothing has been left to ramdom in order to respect the tradition of Cathedral builders.
