Louis Arretche designed the Eglise Sainte Jeanne d'Arc Vieux Marche in Rouen, France, completed in 1979. The church replaces the Vieux-Marché market were executions and public humiliations took place. It retains the original stained glass window from the original Renaissance-era Saint-Sauveur church which was ruined in World War 2.
The curved wood structure and open window facades recalls a covered market place. The upturned boat figure recalls Corbusier's Ronchamp cathedral. It's a dark and slender tribute to one of France's most mysterious heroes.
