Église du Saint-Sacrement, Catholic church in 8th arrondissement, Paris, France.

The Église du Saint-Sacrement is a Catholic church on Rue Cortambert in the 8th arrondissement, built from 1858 in a Neo-Gothic style. Its facade is framed by two towers, and the nave is lit by tall pointed windows; the interior holds a large stained-glass window depicting the Last Judgment.

Built to serve the new parish of the Quartier de l'Europe, the church was designed by the architect Charles Girault and its first stone laid in 1898; the building was completed and consecrated in 1902. It replaced a temporary chapel on the same site, rue de Chazelles, as the 8th arrondissement filled with housing around the Parc Monceau and the Boulevard Malesherbes.

The church's name, Saint-Sacrement, refers to the Blessed Sacrament of the Eucharist, and its dedication shapes the interior: the high altar and tabernacle are the focal point of the nave. The parish is served by the Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament, founded by Pierre-Julien Eymard, who promoted adoration of the Eucharist in 19th-century Paris.

The church is centrally located and easily reached by public transportation via stops near Boulevard Haussmann. Visitors should check service times to ensure the building is open when they plan to visit.

The church's organ, built by the firm of Aristide Cavaillé-Coll, was inaugurated in 1898 and is still used for recitals; its 45 stops and mechanical traction make it a reference instrument for Parisian organists. Look for the console inscription near the tribune.
