Church of Our Lady of the Angels

The Church of Our Lady of the Angels (Notre Dame des Anges) was built in 1855 in Greco-Roman style, its façade flanked by two unadorned square towers faces east towards the ocean. This church is located in Dumas street in Pondicherry town in South India. 

The interior is roofed by a barrel vault, with a great dome rising over the crossing. The pastel peach and colours give it a serene appearance.

This church is also famous for its rare oil painting of Our Lady of the Assumption, which was a gift from the French emperor, Napoleon III.

The church has old pews (seating) made of cane, Indian stained glass that filters sunlit patterns of colour into the interior.
