Next time we're in Paris...
Church of St-Étienne-du-Mont | A Bridge to Eternity | Masterpiece by H. George Fletcher - WSJ.com: The neighboring church of St-Étienne-du-Mont, another vestige of the vanished Abbey of Sainte-Geneviève that once crowned the Montagne Sainte-Geneviève, draws comparatively small attention. Few of those who contemplate its exterior intrude upon its peaceful, light-filled, flamboyant gothic interior. But they should.
We were lucky when last in Paris: a general strike caused unpredictable city-wide closings, so--for example--we would try to see the Pantheon and end up at St-Etienne-du-Mont through happy accident.
