"Saint-Séverin church - Iglesia" Latin Quarter Tip by spanishguy
Latin Quarter, Paris: 81 reviews and 231 photos
The next stop was the Saint-Séverin church. I particularly love this church because here it was my first ever mass in Paris some years ago. It's placed in one of the oldest neighbourhood in town, with narrow and bended streets. The church is dedicated to Séverin, who is said to have been a hermit who lived there and prayed in a small rudimentary oratory. After Séverin's death, a basilica was constructed on the spot. This was destroyed by the Vikings, and the current church building was started in the 11th century, though its major features are late Gothic and date from the 15th century.
La siguiente parada fue la iglesia de Saint-Séverin. Le tengo un especial cariño a esta iglesia porque aquí fue donde escuché la primer amisa en París hace algunos años ya. Se encuentra en uno de los barrios más antiguos de la ciudad, con calles estrechas y tortuosas. La iglesia está dedicada a Séverin, del que se dice que era un ermitaño que vivió y rezó en un pequeño y rudimentario oratorio. A su muerte se levantó una basílica en el lugar, pero fue destruida por los vikingos. La actual iglesia comenzó en el siglo XI, pero sus más destacables partes son de estuilo gótico, datando del XV.
