Saint-François-de-Sales

The first church rose in 1873 among fields at the edge of the rue Brémontier, opened in 1863, and became a parish in 1875. It soon proved too small, and in 1913 the architect Ewald built a second church, paid for by the parishioners, on the rue Ampère. The windows of the old church, by Henri Chabin, tell the life of Saint Francis de Sales. A richly painted chapel fills the photograph.
