Saint-Nicolas-du-Chardonnet
Church in Paris, France
About
Saint-Nicolas du Chardonnet (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ ni.kɔ.lɑ dy ʃaʁ.dɔ.nɛ]) is a Catholic church in the centre of Paris, France, in the 5th arrondissement. It was constructed between 1656 and 1763. The facade was designed in the classical style by Charles Le Brun. It contains many notable art works from the 19th century, including a rare religious painting by Jean-Baptiste Corot.
Since the expulsion of the parish priest and his assistants by supporters of the SSPX in 1977, the church has been run by the Society of St. Pius X, which celebrates Traditional Latin Masses there.
