The reuse of Anglican churches in the Riviera and Côte d’Azur

Riviera and Côte d’Azur have always been since the mid-nineteenth century, a tourist region of major importance at European level. In particular, tourists from across the Channel have represented the largest group ever, so much so that were built many buildings in use of the English communities. These came to be an English environmental bubble, traces of which are still evident. After the Second World War it is certainly crucial the drastic reduction of the tourist interest by the British. As a result, the buildings used by the English tourist colony were first abandoned and then re-used for other purposes. In the present study we will consider the Anglican churches that the British built during their long stay in the region, analyzing one by one all the places of worship in order to observe their reuse.
