Two separate photos, one facing the altar and the other the organ in the back of the church. The church of Saint-Germain-des-Prés is an old Benedictine abbey of Paris founded in 543 by the Merovingian king Childebert I and the bishop of Paris Saint Germain.

Main Altar at Basilica Ste. Clotilde in Paris by Beausoleil
Ste. Clotilde was consecrated on the 30th November 1857 and dedicated to Ste. Clotilde, wife of Clovis, the first Christian King of France, and to Ste. Valerie. In 1897, 1,400 years after the baptism of Clovis, the sanctuary was granted the status of minor basilica by Pope Leon XIII. The style is neo-Gothic and walking into the church is a thrill. There are also free organ recitals on the famous organ after the 11 AM Mass each Sunday and the church is a venue for many concerts. We attended the Faurék "Requiem" there on our first night in Paris on one visit. What a great way to start a visit to Paris!

Église Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis - Organ by Beausoleil
Église Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis is a church on rue Saint-Antoine in the Marais. The present building was constructed from 1627 to 1641 by the Jesuit architects Étienne Martellange and François Derand, on the orders of Louis XIII of France. The Saint Paul Metro station is named after the church. Two clam-shell holy water holders were a gift from Victor Hugo when his daughter was married there. Delacroix painted "Christ in agony on the Mount of Olives" for the church which can be seen to the left of the altar. The church's grand tribune organ was classified as a historic monument in 1867 and was restored in 1972.

Eglise Saint-Nicolas du Chardonnet by Beausoleil
We were doing a Paris Walk and noticed the back of a substantial church so we decided to take a detour. We walked around to the front and entered to discover a lovely church located on an equally lovely square (triangular square if there is such a thing). The church is a little unusual in that since 1977, after expelling the parish priest and his assistants, the church has been used by the traditionalist Society of St. Pius X and remains in the Society's hands. If you long for the good old days, this is where you will find them.

Interior of St. James Church in Chipping Campden by Beausoleil
There was a Norman church on this site before AD 1180. About AD 1490 the nave was reconstructed on the foundations of the old Norman nave. The great window over the chancel arch was added, and around AD 1500 the 120 foot West tower was built. There is a peal of eight bells, whose dates vary from AD 1618 to AD 1737 that were recast and rehung in 1987. There is a nearby inn named Eight Bells in reference to the tower bells. It's a great place for lunch if you're visiting the church.
