In the heart of the Marais district, in the seventeenth
century many sumptuous hotels were built including
the Hotel de Turenne, at the corner of rue Saint-Claude
and rue Neuve-Saint-Louis (now rue de Turenne). In
1684 the second monastery of the Benedictines of the
Blessed Sacrament moved into this hotel, which was
destroyed during the French Revolution. Saint Denys du
Saint Sacrement was erected on the site of the former
chapel of the convent and built by Étienne-Hippolyte
Godde in a neoclassical style between 1826 and 1835.
E4
The main organ (1839) was one of the first built by the
Daublaine Callinet House under the artistic direction of Félix
Danjou and can be considered as a typical ‘transitional’
instrument, still classical, but with some new features
(gamba’s, dulcian, clarinet, free reeds). The organ had
originally 31 stops spread over 3 keyboards and pedal.
The organ was reconstructed in 1867 by Cavaillé-Coll.
In 1970, Gutschenritter made the traction electric, extended
the size of the keyboard (from 54 to 56 notes) and the pedal
(from 25 to 30 notes) and added a Plein Jeu V (GO) and a
Cymbale II (Positif).
In 1984 Jacques Barbéris revoiced the Mixtures and the
Cromorne.
The latest restoration was done by Dargassies in 2008. He
extended the Cymbale from II to III ranks.
