Sainte-Odile is a Roman Catholic church located in the 17th arrondissement of Paris, at the northwest edge of the city.

He presented the idea to Cardinal Verdier, who was in the process of building over one hundred new churches in Paris, but was told that there was no more funding available.

[1] Work on the church began in 1935 and was planned to last for three years, but in 1936, a left-wing movement, the Popular Front, took charge of the government.

[2] The design by Barge was inspired by classical Roman and Byzantine architecture,[3] notably the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, with its three domes, and the 10th-century Périgueux Cathedral.

The bell tower is seventy-two meters high, and the church is the same length, reflecting the number of disciples of Christ mentioned in the Gospel of Luke.

Therefore, most of the interior and exterior of the church were clad in brick and stone, often laid in imaginative geometric designs.

[3] The three cupolas, which bring a small amount of light to the interior, are constructed of thin reinforced concrete covered with a layer of copper.

Barriot made the retable out of enamelled copper, which depicts the Seven Churches of the Apocalypse and the Twenty-Four Elders surrounding the Heavenly Father.

It depicts two orange peacocks, which were a symbol of immortality in Roman catacombs, surrounded by interlaced floral designs of gray and green glass.

The fine details of the faces and costumes were not painted on, as in traditional stained glass, but colored with a furrow of pate de verre combined with cement.
