Église Notre Dame Saint-Vincent, Roman Catholic church in 1st arrondissement, Lyon, France

The church features eighteen cylindrical columns in the nave, large rectangular windows in the dome, and a facade adorned with a Virgin Mary statue.

Originally built by Augustinian monks from 1759 to 1789 under architect Leonard Roux, the church initially bore the name Saint-Louis to honor Louis Le Dauphin.

The church crypt served as a meeting point in 1941 for Lyon Catholics, Protestants, and others who gathered to discuss contemporary social matters.

Located at 59 quai Saint-Vincent in Lyon's 1st arrondissement, the church shares parish responsibilities with the nearby Saint Paul church in Vieux Lyon.

Following a devastating fire in 1987, the church underwent extensive renovations until 1992 and received a new organ, installed on a platform in 1995.
