Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis, Catholic church in Le Marais, Paris, France

The Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis church features a 55-meter-high dome, a single nave bordered by chapels, and a Latin cross layout in classical style.

Cardinal Richelieu placed the first stone of this church on May 9, 1641, and Jesuit architects Étienne Martellange and François Derand directed its construction.

The church contains artworks by Eugène Delacroix, sculptures by Germain Pilon, and a large tribune organ dating from 1867.

The church maintains regular Catholic services and visitors can access it through the Saint-Paul metro station in the 4th arrondissement.

The crypt preserves tombs of Jesuit priests from the 17th and 18th centuries, marking the building's connection to the religious order.
