Église Notre-Dame de Lourdes de Casablanca Boulevard Mohamed Zerktouni · Maârif
Current use Catholic church
Period 1954
Overview Casablanca's second large church after the Sacred Heart, Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes was built in 1954, following a competition, by the architect Achille Dangleterre and the engineer Gaston Zimmer, near a reconstructed Lourdes grotto. Its form recalls a tent with sloping walls: 60 metres long, 26 wide and 26 high. Twenty-four tall concrete ribs, 17 metres high, carry the vault and frame two walls of stained glass by the master glassmaker Gabriel Loire. The church is still a place of Catholic worship.
