Overview

The St-Louis-des-Chartrons parish was established in 1791 through a decree by the Constituent Assembly. It became known as the place of worship of the Carmes which, because of the generally negative state of their affairs, was destroyed in 1875. The present-day church, designed by the architect Charles-Louis Brun, was completed in 1880. The facade features four buttresses that end in small steeples on the platform supporting the towers, all of which testifies to a typically Gothic style. You'll also notice the triple-tiered knave, as well as the beautiful stained glass window. Check the website to know the open hours.
