Magnifique. Tellement heureuse que ce genre de messe et bâtiment existent encore.

En París no puedes dejar de visitar las numerosas iglesias fascinantes que encuentras a cada paso. La mayoría son gloriosas, imponentes, enormes. Tal es el caso de la iglesia dedicada a San Roque, donde Napoleón bonaparte ametralló a los insurrectos que se revelaban contra la monarquía en 1795. Magníficas pinturas y esculturas y mucho barroco. Inicialmente fue una capilla dedicada a Santa Susana y mucho después, en tiempos de LOUIS XIV, 1653, se erige como iglesia bajo el diseño de Jacques Le Mercier. Destaca su esplendoroso interior y cuenta con una fachada muy bonita de Robert de Cotte. Para su ampliación en el año 1719 fue fundamental la financiación de un mecenas inglés llamado John Law.
