Look at the finished façade, then move your attention towards the side and rear masonry, where earlier elements remain visible. The contrast shows how successive building campaigns can reshape a church without removing every trace of its past. While the interior remains closed, the exterior still helps explain the architectural setting of place des Prêcheurs and its neighbouring public buildings.
