Saint-Louis en l'Île, Baroque church on Île Saint-Louis, Paris, France.

The stone church building features an openwork bell tower with a perpendicular iron clock extending over Rue Saint-Louis-en-l'Île street.

Construction of Saint-Louis-en-l'Île started in 1664 under architect François Le Vau and continued until completion in 1726 following multiple construction delays.

The interior contains preserved religious sculptures from the French Revolution period, when the Virgin and Child statue transformed into the Goddess of Liberty.

Visitors can enter the church daily from 9:30 AM to 7:30 PM with a mid-day closure between 1 PM and 2 PM at 19 rue Saint-Louis-en-l'Île.

The west facade remains completely windowless due to adjacent buildings present during its initial construction in the seventeenth century.
