Built between 1854 and 1859 in the Belleville area,

it was the first Gothic Revival Churches in Paris.

These historical grounds are built on a foundation of

an early Bellevillois chapel of 1548 which was

replaced by the "first" Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Belleville church

in 1635.

During the construction of this current structure, the foundation

stones of the earlier churches were uncovered.
