Ste Clotilde was built in 1846-1857 and is the first church in Paris built in a neo-gotic style. The church was declared a minor basilica by Pope Leo XIII in 1896 on the 14th centenary of the baptism of Clovis.

C4 The great organ is one of the major works of Cavaillé-Coll. It was inaugurated in 1859 by the titulaire César Franck. The current organ is the result of four building periods (1859- 1933-1962-2005), in which the organ grew from 46 to 71 stops. The most recent restauration and extension (from 60 to 71 stops, adding among others chamades and a contre- bombarde 32) by Bernard Dargassies has re-established some of the former glory of this master-piece of Cavaillé-Coll.
