To the left of Diderot Street, descending from north to south, an imposing building (twelfth century), with its five vaulted nefs. The present church is the result of several constructions of xiiie in the eighteenth. A fire in 1725 gave the langrois architect Claude Forgeot the opportunity to treat this pretty facade. Original, the bell tower, which is a bonded and graceful bell, does not seem to obey this symmetrical law that Forgeot had. It is developed on four levels, the Campanile is very open. This abundance of decoration details contrasts with the sobriety of the building, but adds a delicious Italian character.
