Sainte Bernadette de Biscarrosse Church
Rue de l'Eglise, Biscarrosse plage See the map
The wooden chapel, built in 1921, had become too small, despite an extension in 1927, and it was necessary to build a larger one.
This project was born thanks to the will of a priest, the parish priest Jean Baptiste Lapeyre, and the generosity of parishioners and some entrepreneurs.
The first stone was laid in December 1957. On August 6, 1961, the inauguration took place in the presence of the Bishop, the parish priest and the mayor. In 1987, renovation works were undertaken, installation of a tribune and a mobile partition, repair of the western entrance, development of a square on the southern side, and construction of an annex room.
This beautiful set of works was inaugurated on April 22, 1988.
