Small jewel of Baroque Art built in 1733, Église Saint-Ephrem is the work of the architect Pierre Boscry.

Access is through a rare baroque-inspired portal in Paris, whose porch supported by Corinthian columns, gives access to an intimate chapel with remarkable acoustics. The many concerts organized there are given by artists, all winners of the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique of Paris.

Inside, the walls of the nave are decorated with a series of icons presenting the main Saints of the Syriac Catholic Church, monks and Christian martyrs of the first centuries. Respecting the liturgy of this Eastern rite (Messe in Aramaic) the nave and the choir are separated by a carved wooden chancel.

Located in a green setting in the historic center of Paris (Latin Quarter) close to the Pantheon and the Sorbonne, the calm and serenity that reign there make it a privileged place for classical music.
