Église Saint-Joseph

5 Rue de l'Abbé Châtelain, 57950 Montigny-lès-Metz

Moselle
Grand Est

Edifice, in stone of Jaumont, of basilical plan, with three naves, in the style neo-Romanesque Rhine. Stained glass windows made by the master glassmaker Martin of Wiesbaden. The construction of the church was partly due to Abbé Philippe Châtelain, who wanted to have a place of worship equal to the Catholic population, which has been growing rapidly since the middle of the 20th century. After years of deliberation, the project of the architect from Mainz, Ludwig Becker, was selected. The first stone was laid on May 3, 1903\. After three years of work, the church was inaugurated on 29 July 1906 by Bishop Benzler of Metz. The façade of the church overlooking the Place Jeanne d'Arc is pierced by three doors including the large portal surmounted by the statue of Saint Joseph, patron saint of the church. A wide variety of frescoes are organized into five major programs. Note: the representation of many dragons on the stalls, on the canopy, in the glass windows, and even the smallest on the
