The Church of
Sainte-Trinite is a product of the Industrial Revolution and the Second Empire, which means it is relatively new among
Paris churches (1867). The exterior—impressive especially at night—is very eclectic: part Gothic, part
Renaissance and part contemporary with ornate decorations on almost every available surface. The tower, one of the tallest in
Paris, looks to be different smaller towers stacked on
top of each other to make one.
The interior has a wide nave surrounded by galleries and embellished with sculptures. The
focal point is the main altar, framed by enormous stained glass windows with a grand frieze above. Everything seems so fancy and colorful in this church—it rises right up in front of you, both outside and inside.
