The Saint-Joseph-du-Plessis Church 20C at Rue Etienne Dolet ,It was only in 1907 that the parish of St Joseph du Plessis was created. In the choir of the church, a sculpture of the Holy Family was inaugurated on April 27, 1947. ;destroyed during WWII and rebuilt on the initiative of Abbot Aubernon, rector from 1951 to 1966. It is an ordinary church which integrates elements, such as the interior arches in the nave, spared by the bombings. Christ on the cross, work of the sculptor Jean Mingam dates from 1963-1964.
