Sainte Marguerite was built in 1624-1634 as a chapel l dedicated to Margaret of Antioch. After been branch Church of the St. Paul Church, the chapel became a parish church in 1712. The nave and the aisles were built in 1679. In 1703 the chapel of the north transept was built, called Chapelle Saint-Joseph-Sainte-Marguerite. The south transept was enlarged with the chapel of the Virgin in 1724. Between 1760 and 1764, the architect Victor Louis built the Chapelle des Âmes-du-Purgatoire in the neoclassical style; the painter Paolo-Antonio Brunetti (1723-1783) made the beautiful ‘trompe l'oeil’ decoration.
