The present church was built on the site of the first Jesuit chapel, built in 1610 and destroyed by fire in 1740. In 1743, architect Dominique Delesalle drew up plans for the new church, and the foundation stone was laid under the direction of architect François Joseph Gombert (died 1744).
The sculptors Théodore Huidiez-Tierce (1810-1892) and Désiré Buisine (1793-1881) undertook the choir panelling, as well as the twelve medallions representing the apostles, the choir railings, the confessionals and the pulpit. The stained-glass windows were created by Charles Gaudelet (1817-1880) and the monumental trompe-l'oeil paintings by Charles Stalars (1808-1876).
