The work of architect Hubert Blanche de Feydeau (church and furniture), the church was to be part of a "parish city" (hall, gymnasium, library), a project not realized due to lack of funds. Construction of the church began in 1935\. The church is built on a single vessel basilical plan (44 meters by 24 meters). On each side, two narrow collaterals reduced to simple passages serve three chapels. The building is built on a framework of pillars and polygonal arches made of reinforced concrete. The shapes are simply underlined by lintels and concrete chains. Above the porch in full circle, Georges Chaumot carves in Lavoux stone, a bas-relief frieze representing three evocations of the life of saint André, which constitutes the only exterior decoration. The interior offers a remarkable example of adapting the principles of Art Deco architecture to sacred art. The spatial composition and decoration respond to a geometric cutting of simple shapes. Soffino makes the mosaic. Georges Chaumot, sculptor, adorns the entrance gate. H. Vinet, sculptor, for the way of the Cross. The master glassmaker Chigot, associated with Pentecost of Loix-en-Ré, for the ten windows. L. Gouffault, mosaicist, for the glass paved cross and the choir mosaic. Beauchamp, locksmith, for the baptismal font grid. Gorget, locksmith, for the communion table. The Beauplet workshops for tiles.
