Charles De Foucauld Church
Charles De Foucauld Church (Église Charles de Foucauld) is a Catholic church dedicated to Charles de Foucauld (1858–1916), a French soldier and explorer who became a Catholic priest and hermit and was martyred in Algeria. The church serves the local Christian community in Casablanca and is a spiritual focal point for those inspired by De Foucauld's life and work in North Africa. The architecture is typically modern or mid-20th century, common for churches built after the city's rapid expansion.
