Église Saint-Joseph-de-Cluny, Gothic Revival church in 14th arrondissement, France.

Église Saint-Joseph-de-Cluny is a church building in the 14th arrondissement that revives Gothic architectural forms. It features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses that are characteristic of 19th-century Gothic Revival design.

The congregation of the Sisters of Saint-Joseph de Cluny acquired the land between Rue Méchain, Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Jacques and Boulevard Arago in 1849, above the Capucins quarries. Construction of the chapel by the architect Lebreton began in 1855, and it was consecrated on 1 May 1860. Its crypt holds the relic of the heart of Anne-Marie Javouhey, founder of the congregation, who died in 1851.

The chapel belongs to the Sisters of Saint-Joseph de Cluny, the congregation founded by Anne-Marie Javouhey, who died in 1851. Her heart is kept as a relic in the crypt, and the community still uses the building for worship. The name Cluny refers to the order's first house in Cluny, Burgundy.

The chapel is a private building on the grounds of the Sisters of Saint-Joseph de Cluny, entered from 26 Rue Méchain between Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Jacques and Boulevard Arago. It stands above former Capucins quarries, so access is arranged with the congregation rather than by open public hours. Métro lines 4 and 6 stop at Denfert-Rochereau, a short walk away.

The crypt holds the heart relic of Anne-Marie Javouhey (1779–1851), founder of the Sisters of Saint-Joseph de Cluny, who died five years before the chapel was consecrated. The building stands on ground acquired in 1849 above the former Capucins quarries, part of the Paris catacombs network.
