Saint-Merry

Saint-Merry was rebuilt in Flamboyant Gothic between 1515 and 1612. In the eighteenth century its interior was refashioned: Germain Boffrand built the Communion chapel in 1745, with reliefs by Paul-Ambroise Slodtz, and in 1752 the choir was remodeled. During the Revolution the church was used to make saltpeter and then became a Temple of Commerce; worship returned in 1803. The photograph of 11 June 2025 looks up into the vaults and toward the choir.
