This is a beautiful albeit modern church with a replica of the Lourdes grotto. Stained glass walls are a highlight.

Passed it more or less by accident at the place europe and was invited to visit the inside. I enjoyed the peace and the simple concrete structure with lots of glass pictures to look at. A little cove to the side with a statue. In all the noice and stress a good place to come down for a short moment.

This is a pretty church. The most notable feature of the church are the walls that are stained glass. It is definatly worth the trip if you are in Casablanca for a day.

There is nothing at all to recomend this from the outside. However, the complete wall of stained glass windows on both sides is worth seeing if you have the time.

There is really nothing to dislike with this church, it is the interior that is eye catching. The church is rectangular in plan and with both of the long ground floor walls built from stained glass and with the sunlight in Morrocco, it is a superb attraction. Be aware that it is not open to tourists on a Sunday

We enjoyed a very prayerful and joyful celebration of the Eucharist. The church stained glass is impressive.

I went for Mass there and lit a candle in the beautiful grotto. It seems like the next best thing to being in Lourdes, a must for every Catholic, and the priest was lovely. The choir was spectacular.

Of the two churches we visited, this is the best one... It actually has very nice stained glass. Apart from that still not special, but the glass is worth a look at. If you insist on going to a church in an Islamic country than this is the best one in Casablanca.

Prewar Roman Catholic church acclaimed for its concrete architecture and extensive stained glass. I found it rather gloomy.
