A
Notre-Dame de la Délivrance
St-Denis is home to some attractive religious buildings, including the 1893 church, the Notre-Dame de la Délivrance, which sits on the hillside across the usually dry Rivière St-Denis. It's noteworthy for the statue of the unusual saint St Expédit just inside the door, dressed as a young Roman soldier.

Grande Mosquée
Smack bang in the centre, it's impossible to miss the Grande Mosquée, also known as the Noor-E-Islam mosque. The cool white-and-green interior is a haven of peace. The Islamic community in St-Denis is very traditional, so if you wish to visit, dress and behave with respect.

C
Hindu Temple
St-Denis' small but wildly colourful Hindu Temple stands out among the shops east of the centre. If you wish to visit, remember to remove your shoes and any leather items. Photography is not allowed.

D
Cathédrale de St-Denis
Worth a peek is the fairly unassuming, Tuscan-style Cathédrale de St-Denis. In contrast to the nearby Former Hôtel de Ville, the Cathédrale de St-Denis is a much more sober affair.
