Church of Saint-Francois de Sales, Paris
The Parish Church of Saint-Francois-de-Sales in the 17th arrondissement of Paris is actually two churches, linked by a long passageway. The old church was built in 1873, and when it proved to be too small for the rapidly-growing neighborhood, the new church was built between 1911 and 1913 close by on Rue Ampere.| Tap on a place to explore it |
