A large church with porticos of different styles, with two asymmetrical towers, and a sculpture of the Virgin

This vast church was begun in the 17th century on the foundations of a 12th century building. Characterized by a monumental façade, the work of Jean-Nicolas Servandoni, it consists of two porticoes of different styles (Doric and Ionic) and two asymmetrical towers, one of which was not finished. The interior was richly decorated in the 19th century, notably by the painter Eugène Delacroix. Also worth seeing is a sculpture of the Virgin of Pigalle and the gnomon, a marble obelisk "lit" by a ray of light during the solstices and equinoxes.

Belle église assez originale avec ses deux tours. L'intérieur est à voir, surtout les fresques murales peintes par Delacroix.

Ce n'est pas la plus belle mais sauf que les ouvres de Delacroix viennent d'être rénovées ( a l'entrée à droite) et cela vaut le déplacement.
Le dimanche 14h30 1 heure de visite gratuite...
Le + l'orgue est un des meilleurs en Europe et je conseille fortement d'assister à un des concerts qui ont lieu régulièrement toute l'année.
