Sunday Church Series - Église St. Roch

Our favorite apartment in Paris overlooks this beautiful church. We wake up to the bells.  It's a very special place.

Rarissime

Located directly across the street from our apartment, Rarissime ( rare)  is the tiniest of shops nestled into the side of the beautiful Église Saint-Roch.  Founded in 1638, it's no larger than most American walk-in closets,  but is filled to the brim with antiques and collectibles.

Un petit trésor à Paris

Rarissime, fondee en 1658,  translates to "extremely rare".  Across the street from our flat last January, it is tucked under the Église Saint-Roch.  Not much bigger than my walk-in closet, it buys and sells antiques, old linens, and all manner of interesting collectibles.  Un trésor.

Au Revoir

I took this photograph as I approached our apartement on rue Saint Roch for the last time that rainy day last January.  Wonderful memories of a week I'll never forget mixed with the sadness I always feel when I must say au revoir to dear friends and the city j'adore. Bittersweet.
