Inside Notre Dame d'Auvergne. The interior surfaces are finished in white and pale blue with pebbled glass windows of milky-white, pink, gold and just a touch of green. Even though the church exterior is somewhat austere and imposing (see previous post), the interior is light, airy and inviting.
The church seats one thousand people and I'm sure on religious holidays they could squeeze in a few more.
Translated to English the motto above the altar says: "My Soul Glorifies the Lord."
Thanks to Dan for the backdrop of organ hymns during my short visit there.

Great pictures! Very impressive church.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dale. Notre Dame d'Auvergne is a real gem.
DeleteBeautiful and I'm sure made even more so by the musical addition while you were there.
ReplyDeleteDan's playing was an unexpected treat.
