The Saint-Vincent-de-Paul church in Blois was built in the 17th century by the Jesuits, then restored by Gaston d'Orléans, brother of King Louis XIII. You can admire the elegant facade with its three levels of columns and scrolls, as well as the rich interior decoration with paintings, sculptures and marble. The church is also a place of memory for Gaston d'Orléans and his family, who are buried there. The church is open daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and admission is free.

The architecture of the church corresponds to the criteria of the Catholic Counter-Reformation.
