Strasbourg
The Deaconess' chapel
Description
Rue St. Elisabeth
Built in 1904, the Deaconess’ chapel stands just next to the clinic of the same name. Inside, you will find 8 stained-glass windows made by Clément Heaton. Each of them has a central panel illustrating a story from the Bible, topped by a pattern evoking a piece of architecture. The overall work shows scenes from the Old and New Testament and ends by the altar with two themes on the resurrection. The woman and the child have a special place in this iconography that is in keeping with the feminine community’s sensibility.
