The chapel of Notre Dame du Haut in Ronchamp, a famous work of the
twentieth-century architect Le Corbusier, was recently vandalized,
according to French media reports. The only stained-glass window signed by Le Corbusier was shattered: “they broke into a thousand pieces the only glazing signed by Le Corbusier,” said Ronchamp’s deputy mayor.
Consecrated in 1955, the chapel, originally designed as a site of pilgrimage, is now part of a monastery of Poor Clare nuns.
