This church was rebuilt in the second half of the
15th century in flamboyant gothic style at the
place of a former church of the 11 th century. It
was modified several times until the 18th
century, and has thus a rather heterogenic
appearance. Situated at the end of the medieval
and pittoresk Rue Mouffetard, this church is
one of the typical 'countryside' churches of
Paris (as is St. Germain de Charonne).

The beautiful organcase (made by Germain Pillon) dates
to 1646, even anterior to the one in St-Étienne-du-Mont.
The gallery beneath was built only early in the 19th
century. In 1767, organbuilder François-Henri Clicquot
completely rebuilt the old instrument in the old case,
extending it with two wings and reusing only the
wooden pipework of the old organ. And history repeated
itself: In 1880 the work if Clicquot was almost completely
removed (with the exception of six stops) by Edouard
and Eugène Stoltz who rebuilt the organ completely,
emptying also the positif to place a new console. Since
than, only minor changes have been made. Therefore,
this organ can be considered as a relatively authentic work
of the Stoltz brothers.
