“The Chapel of Sainte-Ursule de la Sorbonne, also known as the Sorbonne Chapel, was the chapel for the Catholic students and faculty of the College of Sorbonne in Paris in the 18th century, then for the university faculties of Paris in the 20th century. It is located at 17 Rue de la Sorbonne in the 5th arrondissement of Paris. It was commissioned in 1626 by Cardinal Richelieu whose tomb was placed there after his death in 1642. It is the only building remaining from the 17th century university. As of May 2025, the chapel is still closed to the public for major renovation.” (Sorbonne Chapel, Wikipedia)
