Église Sainte Étienne du Mont

Église Sainte Étienne du Mont


This church with its storied history is exquisitely detailed
and filled with stained glass windows, the only rood screen in France,
and an abundance of light.

Églies Saint-Étienne du Mont

This side entrance of Saint-Étienne 

are closed but the ornate doorway is stunning.  

Many will recognize it from the movie "Midnight in Paris"

Built between 1492 and 1626, the light interior is filled with cherubs and angels.  

I would put it high on your list.

Église Saint Étienne du Mont

The windows, the architecture, the history, 

the art, the details, the stories...

You could sketch, draw, paint, photograph...

listen, observe, watch, study, pray...

and still not absorb it all
