While in Paris, if you can, be sure to go to (obviously) Notre Dame, but also, not far, on the Left Bank, there is the stunning St. Severin, and also on the Left Bank, St. Germain de Pres. There are, of course more stunning churches in Paris than you could possibly visit in a usual short trip, but those are all historic so you get much more “bang for the buck” if you go to mass in one of them. On the Right Bank, there is St. Eustache, where Moliere was baptised.

There is also a beautiful English Gothic Episcopal (US Episcopal Church) Cathedral of the Holy Trinity on Rue Georges V down the street from Champs Elysees.
Stunning is right. While looking for book stores, I decided to go in. Here’s the shot I got:

You might want to sneak into Église Saint-Roch at 284 rue Saint-Honoré, in the 1st arrondissement as the Admiral deGrasse is interred there. Any American history buff should surly pay his/her respects to this man who played a crucial role in the cause of Cornwallis’ surrender at Yorktown - and thus American Independence.
