The Église Saint-Jean-Bosco is a Roman Catholic church at 79 rue Alexandre-Dumas in the 20th arrondissement of Paris. Built between 1933 and 1938 in reinforced concrete, it is a rare Art Deco church in the city, with its paintings, murals, stained glass, mosaics, statues and architecture all created within a single decade, giving it a harmonious style. It is named after Saint John Bosco, the Italian priest who founded the Salesians of Don Bosco, and was designated a French national historic monument in 2001.
