Like all the districts of Paris under the Second
Empire, the District of the Monceau Plain saw its
population increase. After the Commune, a new
place of worship was raised under the
responsibility of the architect of Édouard
Delebarre de Bay. He chooses a rather stripped-
down neo-Romanesque style. The building,
dedicated to St. Francis of Sales, was blessed in
1873.
E6
The organ was built around 1902 by Abbey. In the middle
of the 20th century, it had several transformations by the
Gonzalez, Muller and Maciet towards neo-classical
aesthetics.
In 1987, the instrument was rebuilt by the Languedoc
Manufacture of Grandes-Orgues (Lovède). The neo-
roman case was preserved. Ten stops were added: GO:
Grosse Fourniture II, Plein Jeu V; Récit: Flûte à fuseau 4,
Cymbale IV; Solo: Grand Cornet V, Trompette 8, Clairon 4;
Pédale: Principal 8, Octave 4, Bombarde 16.
