Based on Notre Dame de Paris, the church was built in 1532 and based on Notre Dame de Paris. The width of the front facade is as long as 43 meters, which is very imposing. The external Gothic spires, cornices and rose-round windows are very similar to Notre Dame de Paris. The bell tower on the right side of the church uses a large carved column that is different from the main facade. The two form a sharp contrast. Completely completed, its top looks as if it has been cut off, but it does not affect the overall aesthetics of the Church of St. Eustache. The interior of St. Eustache Church is also unique, and you will be shocked by the towering dome when you step into it. Due to the more than 100 years of building the church, it has absorbed different architectural styles, such as the 33.5-meter-high dome, the flower basket carving decoration, the six-sided angel statue and other details, which are full of the breath of Renaissance architecture, and different styles are harmoniously combined here. , no confusion. There are many exquisite statues, paintings and other works of art in the church of St. Eustache, which are worth savoring. Among them, Pilgrims of Emmaus by the famous Baroque painter Peter Paul Rubens (Pierre Paul Rubens) (The Pilgrims of Emmaus) is not to be missed. In addition, the colored glass paintings on the glass windows also have a unique charm. The statue of the Virgin on the altar in the center of the church is known as one of the most beautiful statues of the Virgin in Paris. Above the altar is a painting by Thomas Couture, a well-known French historical painter, showing the scene of the Virgin's crucifixion. Another major attraction of the Church of St. Eustache, the largest pipe organ in Paris, is its pipe organ, which has more than 8,000 pipes and is the largest pipe organ in Paris. The famous composer Hector Berlioz's "Te Deum" (TeDeum) was premiered here, and every summer a concert is held in the Church of St. Eustache to commemorate it. In addition, every Sunday at 17:30, the church will perform a pipe organ performance. Admission is free. Come here to enjoy an auditory feast. At the end of the visit, you can go to the square in front of St. Eustache Church. There is Henry Miller's sculpture "Listening" on the square. The huge stone head and palm have become a playground for children. There is also a small fountain on the square, and standing on the high ground behind the fountain can take a panoramic view of the facade of the Church of St. Eustace.

A particularly beautiful church, but the fame is not too big, so there are not many people to visit, the history is very long a church, the exterior structure is very special, and the interior decoration is quite gorgeous
Gothic style church, very stylish, very beautiful, and very old, although not very knowledgeable about Christian Catholicism, but just visit its architecture is already amazing

This is a unique Gothic architecture. The solemn and magnificent 201; glise Saint-Eustache St. Estash Church was built in the sixteenth to seventeenth centuries. Many French celebrities are baptized here after birth, receive the Eucharist and hold weddings and funerals. There is a huge organ built on the inner wall of the church, playing touching religious music during Mass. There are the true works of Flemish painter Rubens.
Perfectly combined with Gothic architecture and Renaissance decoration, the magnificent cathedral is breathtaking. From 1532 to 1640, the church was built in the shape of Notre Dame Cathedral, and then architect Barta rebuilt it after the fire of 1844. Today it is one of the most beautiful churches in Paris.
Paroisse Saint-Eustache Moriel was baptized and married here, where Louis received the Eucharist when he was 14 years old, and where Mozart buried his mother (Wikipedia said). Rubens'works are also collected in the church. A very grand and tall church with complex walls, which I have not seen in other churches in Paris yet comparable.
