Eglise Saint Merri


 The Eglise Saint-Merri is located in the 4th arrondissement near the Centre Pompidou. It is dedicated to the 8th century abbot of Autun Abbey, Saint Medericus or Saint Merri, who came to Paris on pilgrimage and later died there in the year 700. Saint Merri's remains are still in the church's crypt.  The church is home to the oldest church bell in Paris, cast in 1331. It also houses an 18th century organ by master craftsman Francois Henri Cliquot. It is well known among Parisians for its free weekly concerts.
