Saint-Vincent-de-Paul church
Saint-Vincent-de-Paul church, Neoclassical church in 10th arrondissement, Paris, France
Saint-Vincent-de-Paul church is a Neoclassical building in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, marked by two bell towers and a monumental facade with a triangular pediment. The interior is dominated by a remarkable mural called The Mission of the Church, which displays more than two hundred painted figures.
The site was initially a medieval leper colony, later becoming a prison before construction of the current church began in 1824. This transformation shows how the use of the location changed dramatically over the centuries.
The church bears the name of Saint Vincent de Paul, a saint known for helping the poor and sick. The name reflects the social mission that this place has carried out since its founding.
The church is open Tuesday through Saturday with both morning and afternoon hours, with a break at midday. The entrance is on Rue de Belzunce, making the building easy to find.
The stained glass windows use enamel colors baked onto the glass surface to create shading effects. This technique differs from how medieval artisans designed their glass.
