Designed by Le Corbusier, the Chapel of Notre-Dame du Haut draws thousands of visitors each year.

Renzo Piano's new project includes three main elements: the gatehouse, the monastery and the landscape.Deep in the lush vegetation, the monastery is a place "of silence, prayer, peace and joy", where everything contributes to spiritual contemplation.Most of the material used in this book has not been previously published, and has been made available through the constant and detailed work of cataloguing and classifying the Foundation's archives.

The history of this project will be shown through Renzo Piano's personal notes and memories, starting with his first visit to the site to the opening on September 2011
