Notre Dame de France celebrates its 150th anniversary

From 01/01/2015 at 08:00 to 06/12/2015 at 20:00

In 1865 the Marist Fathers purchased the building which housed the Leicester Square Panorama, a precursor of the cinema, to build a church for the service of the French community of London. Since then, the parish of Notre Dame de France has become a living testimony to the faith and commitment of its priests and parishioners. For more information on the history of NDF…
