8th arrondissement, Paris

"Completed in 1842, this monumental church often hosts free organ concerts on Sunday afternoons."
The 20-meter high columns and the Last Judgment sculpture etched in the Neoclassical facade of La Madeleine draw in locals and visitors passing through the 8th arrondissement. Walking through the 19th-century church, it is no surprise it took nearly 80 years to build. Entry into the single-nave cathedral is free, and the organ concerts echoing through the 3 domes inside are especially popular on Sundays.
