Saint Sulpice Square

The Place Saint Sulpice, between the Rue de Rennes and Saint Germain des Prés, is the place where stands the great church of the same name. It has some cafes for having a brunch on Sunday morning, a Parisian tradition with the press, art galleries, upscale shops, and a nice fountain in the center. In addition, it is five minutes walk from the Luxembourg garden. The church, which was built in 1754 included the square in its development. Louis Visconti is a nineteenth century architect built the fountain. Pictures carved on the four corners represent the four bishops of the time, that paradoxically never became cardinal.
