Église Saint-Sulpice

6th Arr.

This colossal Baroque beauty doesn't perform for tourists: it simply waits for you to slow down. Inside, Eugène Delacroix's swirling frescoes and one of the world's most famous pipe organs share space with an 18th-century astronomical gnomon that quietly tracks the sun across the stone floor.
