Saint-Denys du Saint Sacrement
Etienne Hippolyte Godde was selected in 1823
as the architect of this church in the Marais.
The style is reflective of the time but the paintings of the Restoration Period
are of particular interest.
The most prestigious is the "Deposition of the Cross"
by Eugene Delacroix.
If you enjoy the work of Delacroix, you could go on a hunt
around Paris to see how many you could find in the Paris churches.

Beautiful church.
The façade is pretty severe.
Maybe I'll do that. (I found 12 Caravaggios on a trip to Italy once, and most of them were in churches).
An impressive church.
