In response to the growing population of the PlaineMonceaux at the beginning of the 20th century, it was decided to build a new church. It was constructed from 1911 to 1913, with an entrance at 15 Rue Ampère, according to the plans of the architect Eugène Ewald. A long corridor provides direct access to the old church.
D2 The instrument was built by Charles Mutin in 1920. From 1978 to 1982, the organ was rebuilt by Adrien Maciet in a neobaroque style: all harmonic flutes, gambas and undulating stops were removed, the expressive box of the Positiv was eliminated, and mutations and mixtures were added. In 2003, Pierre Maciet carried out a full overhaul, completely dismantling and carefully cleaning the instrument, while adding a Cromorne stop.
