Eglise Saint-Leger de Lens, Lens

Lens, my city of 💖, that of my father and my grandparents who were background miners as well as my aunt and my uncle who also worked in the mine until the pits closed and the one where my 3 children 👧 🏻 👦 👦🏻 were born... Superb church ⛪️ located near the Town Hall of Lens; I unfortunately could not enter because during the week it is closed, what a pity 😕 Maybe one day I will have the opportunity to enter it to be able to appreciate the interior of this beautiful church ⛪️!!

The old lady, outraged during the First World War, was rebuilt and inaugurated in 1926, as indicated on its pediment. This new church is rebuilt on the principle of Viollet Leduc, that is to say that the architect imprinted in various schools, at various times, in various styles. Round arches in the Romanesque style, Doric capitals, 19th century pediments, buttresses with buttresses, with pseudo pinnacles, all under a slight Art Deco influence. In short, a curiosity a few minutes from the Louvre Lens.

A beautiful building located at the end of one of the most beautiful boulevards in the city
