The Concerts at the church of Saint Eustache are well known to Parisians. The church of Saint Eustache is located 300 meters from the Relais des Halles and is worth a visit.
The history marks this building. Richelieu and Molière were baptized here, Lully got married here, La Fontaine and Colbert were buried here, Louis XIV made his first communion here, Mozart buried his mother here, Berlioz conducted his Te Deum here…
Built on the site of a modest chapel, a new church was built under François I in 1532. Its construction lasted a century. The facade was rebuilt from 1754, integrating in its architecture mixtures then disputed. It was never completed.

The first organ of Saint Eustache dates from the 16th century. It was reworked, destroyed, rebuilt, reworked several times, the last one in 1989. Only the case is original. The organ has 101 stops and 8000 pipes. It is the second largest organ in France after that of Notre Dame de Paris. It is equipped with two consoles, one of which is mobile, allowing the organist to play in the nave. This is particularly interesting during concerts, because you can see the organist 3 meters away from you, which is rare for an organ of this importance.

Every Sunday at 5:00 p.m., the parish programs performances by the titular organists, Thomas Ospital and Baptiste-Florian Marle-Ouvrard, as well as by other guests. The concerts are free. Come at about 4:45 p.m. to sit by the console. The concerts last about three quarters of an hour.
