- DHR.comNovember 15, 2011Also known as the Le Madeleine, this is a beautiful Roman Catholic church that has Neo-classical architecture. Do not miss the nave with three domes and the sculpture of the Last Judgment.Upvote10Downvote
Hugo Alexandre CruzMarch 1, 2014Finally I got inside this amazing church. At the time the organ was playing and the sound was so powerful and evolving that made that moment truly magical! A must go in Paris!

TravelByArtSeptember 16, 2014It was first place that Hemingway visited in Paris during World War I in 1918. He was standing next to the church while the shells were falling from the bombardment. Read moreUpvote7Downvote
Alex ZhuravlovaAugust 11, 2014Looking like a Parthenon, it was meant to bring some Greek atmosphere to Paris. Don't pass by, get inside and find yourself being stunned by the altar.

Mauricio RibeiroMay 27, 2016Uma das Igrejas mais antigas de Paris e, de bônus, um dos altares mais belos. Às vezes tem surpresa, na minha visita tinha a apresentação de um coral infantil que rendeu boas lágrimasUpvote2Downvote
Vicente MartinezJanuary 12, 2018Una iglesia muy bonita, en su interior y exterior. Recomendable visitarla con calma. Está situada apenas a unos minutos a pie de la Plaza de la Concordia.Upvote1Downvote
Rodrigo Muller (Elipot)November 5, 2012Em setembro, a igreja é tomada por franceses e brasileiros vestidos de branco, carregando rodos, vassouras e água-de-cheiro: é a Lavagem da Madeleine, em alusão a Lavagem do Bonfim, em Salvador.Upvote3Downvote

Fannie BJanuary 18, 2013Il y a une bibliothèque pour tous au rez-de-chaussée, 17€ par an + 1.5€ par livre emprunté. Choix très limité, pas de livres en anglais, de bandes dessinées ou livres pour enfants.UpvoteDownvote
Katrin SupovaJune 4, 2013Монументальное сооружение эпохи Бонапарта. Здесь проходят удивительные концерты органной музыки - в церкви замечательная акустика. Вход free/пн-вс 9.30–19.00Upvote2Downvote

Suzanne TruongJanuary 19, 2014Si vous souhaitez assister à un concert de musique classique oubliez la Madeleine ! L'acoustique y est trop mauvaise quand on est au fond le son est aplati et on entend quasi rien..UpvoteDownvote- Teresa Aguilar LemusJanuary 29, 2018El gran tamaño y la iluminación de las esculturas impresionaban.UpvoteDownvote
Ignacio BlancoDecember 4, 2016Sorprende por dentro. Trata de coincidir con algún acto religioso.

Paolo PlataniaApril 25, 2017Chiesa molto grande a forma di tempio. L'interno non è memorabile.UpvoteDownvote
Herbier de Provence OfficielSeptember 29, 2011Je ne suis pas spécialiste des églises! Mais je l ai trouvée très belle majestueuse a l intérieur. En revanche a peine les échafaudages enlevés qu elle commence déjà a noircir.Upvote2Downvote
