Chapelle de l'Épiphanie, Religious chapel in 7th arrondissement, France

The Chapelle de l'Épiphanie features a Latin cross layout with a polygonal apse and a facade adorned with pilasters and triangular pediment.

Construction began in 1683 under architect Pierre Lambert, with a medal bearing Louis XIV's image placed within the foundation during the cornerstone ceremony.

Four notable paintings decorate the interior, including 'The Adoration of the Magi' by Auguste Couder and 'The Departure of Missionaries' by Charles de Coubertin.

The chapel welcomes visitors Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with guided tours available on Tuesdays for adults and Wednesdays for children.

The chapel houses relics of young martyrs who died in Asia and serves as the central location for missionary departure ceremonies of the Paris Foreign Missions.
