____________________________________

Es war interessant, diese spezielle Wallfahrtskapelle  -auf einem  Hügel  mit traumhaftem Rundblick gelegen- zu besichtigen.Sie zählt   zu den wenigen allgemein anerkannten Meisterwerken der Architektur des vergangenen Jahrhunderts.

Der 1950 bis 1955 nach Plänen des französisch-schweizerischen Architekten LE CORBUSIER errichtete Kirchenbau zählt zu den berühmtesten seiner Art in der Moderne. Er gilt aufgrund seiner zahlreichen visuellen Metaphern, des Reichtums seiner Raumgliederung sowie seines Vorbildcharakters als Ikone der Architektur.Seit 17. Juli 2016 ist er außerdem offiziell als UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe gelistet. Stilistisch gehört die Kapelle dem nach dem französischen Wort für Sichtbeton „béton brut“ als Brutalismus bezeichneten Architekturstil an.

LE CORBUSIER: Ronchamp - Chapelle Notre-Dame du Haut 
(UNESCO) 

The Hill Notre-Dame du Haut, located in Ronchamp (Bourgogne - Franche- Comté) in the east of France, is a place of great historical, artistic and spiritual value.

Le Corbusier built a chapel there in 1955. Jean Prouvé made a three-bell portico in the 1970's and recently, in 2011, RENZO PIANO also worked on the hill. Thus a harmonious architectural complex was created - composed of the Monastery of St. Clare, the tourist entrance pavilion (la Porterie), the Bell Tower (le Campanile) and the chapel of Notre-Dame du Haut. The last, an iconic building, is listed as World Heritage by UNESCO, in 2016.

All these contemporary architectural works are part of an exceptional natural environment. The panorama unfolds on four horizons: to the north, with a unique view of the Vosges mountains, to the east, on the Belfort Gap, to the south, on the first peaks of the Jura mountains and, to the west, on the valley of the Saone river.
