Église Saint-André-de-l'Europe, Gothic Revival church in 8th arrondissement, France

Église Saint-André-de-l'Europe stands at 24 bis rue de Saint-Pétersbourg in the 8th arrondissement. Its light beige stone facade has a large rose window with radiating tracery, three small lancet openings above it, a row of six narrow arched windows, and two pointed-arch doorways at street level. Inside, pale grey stone, pointed ribbed vaults on clustered columns and a rounded apse with three tall stained-glass windows.

A chapel was built in 1860 by architect Lucien Douillard for the Oblates of Mary Immaculate. After the congregation's expulsion under the anticlerical laws of 1880, architects Alfred Coulomb and Louis Chauvet converted it into a church in 1897 as Notre-Dame de l'Immaculée Conception, adding Gothic Revival decoration. In 1907 it became an annex of Saint-Louis-d'Antin and was renamed Saint-André-d'Antin; it took its current name in 1967.

The name honours Saint Andrew and the Europe district, and since 1967 the church has also been dedicated to Our Lady of All Europe; a statue of the Virgin was given by Cardinal Lustiger in 1993. In the rounded apse, three tall stained-glass windows rise above the altar, the central one showing a cross in coloured glass.

The church stands at 24 bis rue de Saint-Pétersbourg in the 8th arrondissement, near the Europe district. It is open to visitors during the week, and Catholic services are held regularly, so check the opening times before setting out.

The church received its present name in 1967, honouring both Saint Andrew and Notre-Dame-de-toute-l'Europe. In 1993 Cardinal Lustiger donated a statue for this second dedication. The building had previously been called Saint-André-d'Antin since 1907.
