Church of the Madeleine

l'église de la Madeleine, La Madeleine, Saint Madeleine Church, Saint Mary Magdalene Church
France, Paris
The Madeleine Church is located on the square of the same name, near the Opera Garnier. It was originally erected according to the design of the French architect Contan d'Ivry under Louis XV. The construction of the church lasted for almost 85 years due to the political instability of France in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Only in 1842 the church was completed and consecrated in honor of Mary Magdalene. On the pediment of the main facade of the cathedral there is a sculptural group "The Last Judgment" by Philippe Honore Lemaire. The Madeleine Church is the third most visited church and the second most prestigious after Notre Dame Cathedral.

Madeleine
Very beautiful church, reminiscent of an ancient Greek temple. Be sure to look. And if you go forward from the church in the direction of the Place de la Concorde, then you will fall on the Rue Faubourg Saint-Honoré , on which there is no house at number 13 (it’s good to be a superstitious empress, you don’t want house number 13 and there isn’t one), but it’s full of shops famous on the whole world of brands.→

Saint Madeleine.
Two similar buildings located opposite each other, the Bourbon Palace and the Saint Madeleine Church, are a continuation of the ensemble of Place de la Concorde. Saint Madeleine with an antique portico is perfectly visible from the Egyptian obelisk. Early in the morning there are no crowds of tourists and you can safely see and sit inside. The entrance is free. There is a small souvenir shop inside. There are a sufficient number of cafes nearby, including Lyadure. Not far from Galeries Lafayette.→
