Last week, during the Béton Brut course,  the entire class went to Le Raincy to visit the amazing Église Notre-Dame du Raincy. The class before the excursion, the students learned about specifics of the building, and now they were able to experience what they learned firsthand.This building was a wonderful experience for the students.
