Saint-François-de-Sales

History

Saint-François-de-Sales is a Roman Catholic church. It was built between 1761 and 1773 using primarily stone.

Saint-François-de-Sales has a very grand nave. Surrounding it are several paintings which depict many religious figures. The nave centralizes around a miniature cathedral that is open as if cut in half. Inside the cathedral are smaller paintings of religious figures. Surrounding the cathedral are four winding pillars going upwards.

The church’s exterior is also unique because if one goes behind the church, one will find several religious paintings plastered on the back of the church.
