Abstract

This paper aims to elucidate the relationship between the architectural conception and the recollection of place in the creation of 'Eglise Saint Pierre' (1960-65) by Le Corbusier. The conception about this church has a close connection with the building site ("the form in the landscape"), at the same time, Le Corbusier recollects "the place of meditation" in 'Eglise de Tremblay' planned in the late 20's and "the silent place" in 'Santa Sophia' (Istanbul) visited in his journey in 1911. Thus, the interaction between the recoltected places and the real site provokes the architect to find out the meaning of the architectural place.
