Lonely Planet review

Its spire rising above St-Germain des Prés, this charming Romanesque church is Paris' oldest. Built in the 11th century on the site of an abbey, it was the city's main centre of Catholic worship until it was eclipsed by Notre Dame. It's the (rumoured) resting place of its namesake, Saint Germain (AD 496-576), the first bishop of Paris.
