The Notre-Dame-du-Finistère church in Brussels, Rue Neuve, Brussels, Belgium - architectural details - facade.


The church Notre-Dame du Finistère was built in the 15th century as a small chapel. The church was rebuilt at the beginning of the 17th century as the area was urbanized, but the present building is a third reconstruction, started in 1708 and completed in 1730. Since then, the upper part of the façade was built and crowned with an octagonal dormer window in 1828 and a statue of the Virgin Mary surrounded by the 12 stars of the Apocalypse was fixed there in 1857.
