Church topped by a large belfry 65 meters high in Paris

Built during the Second Empire, between 1861 and 1867, to plans by architect Théodore Ballu, this church is inspired by both Gothic and Renaissance styles. It was built on the site of a cabaret known as "La grande pinte". Shaped like a belfry, its 65-meter-high bell tower is square at the base and octagonal at the top. Inside, you can admire a large organ by Aristide Cavaillé-Coll and a number of rather academic works of art. The church was not consecrated until 1913.

Très belle et une ambiance très jeune et amicale

Construite au XIXè siècle. Du fait de la pente du terrain, le chœur est surélevé.
Une tribune à balustrade se trouve de chaque côté du chœur qui comprend un superbe maître autel en bronze doré.
Les bas-côtés volontairement petits ajoutent de la grandeur à la grande nef ornée de sculptures, statues, etc . Ses dimensions lui confèrent un type basilical.
J'imagine volontiers que la messe, lors d'une cérémonie ajoute une dimension spirituelle dans ce lieu imposant !
D'ailleurs, à l'occasion d'un concert, j'apprends que Hector Berlioz s'est marié dans cette église, d'où le choix de son Requiem que je suis allée écouter avec une amie.
Une visite à faire, même si hélas, l'extérieur est toujours en travaux.

It's nice, would probably be great after the renovation. We couldn't see that much because of the building. But nice and impressive nonetheless
