The church of Notre-Dame-de-la-Croix, built between 1863 and 1880, combines neo-Romanesque and neo-Gothic elements. The present church was designed by the architect Louis-Jean-Antoine Héret (1821-1899). It is also remarkable for its 78-metre high bell tower and the monumental staircase that precedes its façade. It is one of the largest churches in Paris (the 4th largest church in Paris).
