Saint-Denys de la Chapelle, Gothic church in 18th arrondissement, Paris, France.
The Saint-Denys de la Chapelle exhibits Gothic architecture with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a classical facade added in 1757 featuring four Doric columns.
Established in 1204, the church replaced an earlier chapel from 475 that housed the relics of Denis of Paris until their transfer to the Basilica of Saint-Denis in 636.
The church maintains records of Joan of Arc's prayer visit in 1429 before her attempted attack on Burgundian forces controlling Paris.
Located near the Basilica of Sainte-Jeanne-d'Arc, the church displays 19th and 20th-century stained glass windows with geometric patterns and notable sculptures.
Albert Pasche created a distinctive sculpture depicting Joan of Arc on the bonfire, which stands in the collateral aisle of the church.
