Once inside, you will be struck by the enormity of the space. The high ceilings, the columns, the long rows of pews. As you wander around, you will pass confession booths, candles to light, and beautiful mosaics and window panes that introduce rainbow light into the space.<\/p>\n<p>Look up and you will discover one of the most famous mosaics in the world; the Apse. Inaugurated in 1923 it is a 475 square metre Mosaic of Christ. It shows the risen Christ in white robes with his arms extended, and a gold heart on his chest.<\/p>\n<h6>Practical Information<\/h6>\n<h6><strong>Entry fee: Free<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Opening hours: You can visit between 6am and 22h15, as it closes at 22h30<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Address: 35 Rue du Chevalier de la Barre, 75018 Âé¶¹APP<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Metro Station: Abbesses \/ Anvers \/ Lamarck Caulaincourt<\/strong><\/h6>\n<h4>3. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/top10\/10-things-to-do-at-the-place-du-tertre\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Place du Tertre &#8211; Artist&#8217;s Square<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>Once you have walked around the inside of the church, you may be feeling like a little fresh air.
