Sunday Church Series - Église Saint-Julien-le-Pauvre

Located just across the Seine from Notre Dame, St. Julien le Pauvre is one of the oldest churches in Paris. Built in stages from the 12th to the 19th century this Melkite Greek Catholic church is far smaller than the many grand churches and cathedrals in Paris, but I highly recommend a visit.

Sunday Church Series - Église-Saint-Julien-le- Pauvre

This Melkite Greek Catholic parish church is one of Paris' oldest churches, built in the 13th century.  Located behind the Square René Viviani, just across the bridge from Notre Dame, it's not one of Paris' grandest but certainly should be one to put on your list to visit while in Paris.

Église St. Julien le Pauvre

This week I featured Square René Viviani on the Left Bank. I mentioned that it was adjacent to Église Saint Julien le Pauvre. This Sunday we visit this Melkite Greek Catholic parish church and one of Paris' oldest. Built in the 13th century, it's not as grand as most of the churches in Paris, but one that you should see. I have some dear Greek Orthodox friends here in Birmingham so I especially enjoyed visiting this church.
