Église de la Sainte-Trinité, Renaissance Revival church in 9th arrondissement, France.
The Sainte-Trinité church stretches 90 meters in length with a 65-meter bell tower and features detailed sculptures across its ornate Renaissance Revival facade.
Napoleon III commissioned this church between 1861 and 1867 as part of his grand plan to modernize Paris under the direction of architect Théodore Ballu.
The church maintains a musical legacy through its succession of notable organists, including Olivier Messiaen who performed there from 1931 until 1992.
Visitors can find the church at 3 rue de la Trinité, adjacent to place d'Estienne d'Orves, with convenient access from the Trinité metro station.
During the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871, the church transformed into a hospital, utilizing its spacious interior and heating system for medical purposes.
