Église Saint-André-de-l'Europe

The church features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and decorative elements characteristic of Gothic Revival architecture designed by architects Alfred Coulomb and Louis Chauvet.

Originally built in 1860 as a chapel for the Oblates of Mary Immaculate, the structure was transformed into a church in 1897 following the expulsion of the congregation.

The stained glass windows created by Georges-Claudius Lavergne display theological themes including original sin and the Tree of Jesse through detailed illustrations.

Located at 24bis rue de Saint-Pétersbourg in Paris, the church maintains regular Catholic services and welcomes visitors throughout the week.

The central window of the apse presents the Virgin and Child in a style reminiscent of ancient Greek goddess depictions, combining classical and religious artistry.
