Located in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, at 4 place Saint-Blaise, the Saint-Germain-de-Charonne church was built in the 12th century. From this original building, there remain today some vestiges, including the pillar of the tower.
The site was rebuilt in the 15th century, then strongly modified in the 18th century, being attached to Paris in 1860. It is today the only church of Paris with Saint-Pierre de Montmartre to be lined with its old cemetery. Classified as a Historical Monument, it was made famous thanks to the last scene of the film Les Tontons flingueurs where we can see it during the wedding.
