My first visit today was to the Chapelle Sainte-Thérèse-de-l'Enfant-Jésus et de la Sainte-Face in Hem. This chapel was built in 1956-58 with mosaics and windows by Alfred Manessier, sculptures by Eugène Dodeigne and Jean Roulland, and a tapestry of the Sainte-Face based on a painting by Georges Rouault. It is a fine example of art sacré after WW II. See http://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapelle_Sainte-Th%C3%A9r%C3%A8se-de-l'Enfant-J%C3%A9sus_et_de_la_Sainte-Face.
