Église Saint-Merri
This church was constructed between 1500 and 1550
in a style called "Gothic flamboyant."
Surviving the French Revolution is the oldest bell in Paris,
cast in 1331. (That is not a typo... 1331!!)
This church was reported as a site of the 1832 barricades
fighting in a republican uprising against the July Monarchy.
I will be going back to my unabridged Les Miserables to look for clues.
