Yes, and the giant clam holy water founts are spectacular, probably from a French colony in the Indian Ocean.

The Reign of Terror used that church as a headquarters and the Sulpician priests were driven out. Eleven of them landed in Baltimore where they brought the gift of Faith to the New World.

Very interesting! We always stayed at a little hotel near there and I was always going into that church. Knew nothing of the history!
