St. Pierre church

Out in the seeming middle of nowhere, in the tiny mining town of Firminy, is a Le Corbusier church, part of a complex of buildings planned in the 1970s to bring modernism to the masses. It's a whole lot of concrete goodness, with some wonderful skylights and windows, including a collection intended to resemble the constellation of Orion.
