This organ was built by Mutin for the Touche concert hall
in Paris (1906) and transferred in 1926 to Saint-
Dominique (Paris 14th). Around 1945, he was moved
again, this time to Saint-Antoine de Padua. The organ
was then devoid of its buffet, which is currently in a
church in Verdun, housing an organ of Alexis Collet.
It was restored by Olivier Chevron in 2008, who changed
the traction (which was become electropneumatic in the
past) to mechanic and built a new case without pipes.
The old pipe case consisted of the pedal double bass 16,
which is now inside on a new pedal windchest.

The foundation stone of this parish dedicated to St.
Anthony of Padua, a disciple of St. Francis, was laid on
June 11, 1933. The blessing of the shrine took place on
September 29, 1935.
The interior plane is that of the basilicas. The choir is
dominated by a fresco, executed by the painter Jean
Bernard and inaugurated on June 5, 1948. At the entrance
to the choir, St. Francis showing the stigmas and St.
Joseph presenting the child Jesus invite the faithful to
participate in the sacrifice of Christ. Near the gates, Saint
Teresa of Lisieux and St. Anthony recall the missionary
vocation of every Christian.
Outside, a 46 m spire, flanked, at the four cardinal points,
with statues of St. Francis and St. Clare, St. Louis and St.
Elizabeth, dominates the entire construction. Three bells
were blessed on November 27, 1938, Antoinette-Roberte
(650kg) gave the F, Marie-Thérèse (475kg) gave the G and
Claudine (325 kg) gave the A.
