For the Journées du Patrimoine 2023, the Saint-Gervais-Saint-Protais church in Paris invites us to discover the premises and enjoy a range of activities. Guided tours, a calligraphy workshop, games for children and a concert are on the program from September 15 to 17.

Some of the most beautiful churches in Paris are opening their doors for the Journées du Patrimoine. This year, the church of Saint-Gervais-Saint-Protais awaits us from September 15 to 17, 2023 with an attractive program.

Located opposite the Hôtel de Ville, the Saint-Gervais-Saint-Protais church is a little-known gem of Parisian heritage. Its origins date back to a consecration in 1420, and it took almost 150 years to give it the appearance we know today. With its imposing western façade completed in 1621, it was to inspire other churches in the capital. The interior, however, has retained its original charm despite the trials of time and history. Its flamboyant Gothic architecture places it among the Renaissance churches of Paris, such as Saint-Étienne-du-Mont. And what can we say about the 16th-century choir stalls or the magnificent 16th-century stained glass windows, probably the work of Jean Cousin and Jean Chastellain?
