Part Two · Beyond Paris
Neuilly and the Seine bend
Hauts-de-Seine · six churches · 9 recorded visits
West of Paris, beyond the Porte Maillot, the Seine runs north past the Bois de Boulogne and Neuilly-sur-Seine on its right bank, with Suresnes, Puteaux and Courbevoie on its left. Six of their churches are in the record.
Saint-Pierre-Saint-Paul at Courbevoie was begun in 1790, during the Revolution, and Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Neuilly was rebuilt from 1827 on the site of a church of 1778, the successor of a chapel of about 1540. Saint-Pierre de Neuilly followed at the end of the nineteenth century. The other three, Saint-Jacques at Neuilly, Sainte-Mathilde at Puteaux and Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix at Suresnes, date from the 1930s.
Saint-Jean-Baptiste, Saint-Jacques and Saint-Pierre de Neuilly have two recorded visits each, all three returned to on 8 September 2026; the other three have one each, one on 16 September 2025 and two on 10 September 2026.
