Saint Ignace was built by the Jesuits in 1855 in a neo-
gothic style (St. Ignatius of Loyola is the founder of
the order of the Jesuits). It has no apparent facade
which can be seen from the street. The pastoral and
liturgical services are provided by the Jesuits. Next to
the chapel is their Centre Sèvres, which houses the
Faculty of philosophy and theology of the Jesuits in
France.

The organ case is built by Loret (1862, great
organ) and Haerpfer-Ermann (1977, positif). The
organ of Loret was entirely renewed by Cavaillé-
Coll in 1891 (31 stops). Maintenance was done by
Mutin in 1924, without making changes to the
instrument. In 1947, the salicional and the cornet
were replaced by a nasard and a tierce. The
salicional bass pipes in façade became silent, but
were left in place.
In 1977, Haerpfer-Ermann conducted a full
restoration and added a Positif of eleven stops.
In 1998 maintenance works were carried out by
Koenig in association with Philippe Emeriau. The
organ was completely disassembled and cleaned,
the worn parts replaced. Mechanics were
reviewed. The keyboard, the salicional, the cornet
and the Cavaillé-Coll parts of the organ were
restored. On the positive, the Clairon was
replaced by a Cromorne. In 2012, the same
builders carried out new maintenance works,
including the installation of a computer.
