Church of Saint-Julien-les-Povre

St. Julien le Pauvre is a Parisian parish church. It is one of the oldest holy places in Paris.

It was built in the Gothic style in the thirteenth century and is located on the left side of the Seine, only half a hundred meters away from the Paris Museum of the Middle Ages.

The old walls hold a lot of secrets. Precious icons and iconostases will be seen by those who visit this place. Not far from this temple is a square called René Viviani. Since its founding, this church has belonged to the religious Roman Catholic Church. It was not built immediately - Saint-Julien-les-Pauvers was built for seven centuries. Its construction began in the twelfth century and ended in the nineteenth. In the last stages of its construction, it was transferred to the Melkite Patriarchate.

The original layout of the temple has changed since then beyond recognition and now the temple is much smaller than the planned version.

By the way, it was used to meet students and lecturers. It keeps the secrets of the preaching of Thomas Aquinas.
