Summary/Abstract: This article concerns the project of the unbuilt basilica of Le Corbusier at La Sainte Baume, which has been analyzed in the same context with the Thracian cult buildings – the Pythagoreanism. Since I find some visual and conceptual similarities between the architecture of these buildings from different epochs, I decided to make a parallel between their design and concept. For this purpose, I use a special research methodology, created for comparing architectural spaces from different epochs, which focuses on: the context; the function; the composition; the materials; the façade; the interior of the buildings. My aim is to find out whether similar ideas and philosophy lead to similar architectural interpretation, although created in different epochs and social conditions.
