In the Latin Quarter, between flowerbeds lined with architectural fragments from different eras, you'll come across the church of Saint-Julien-le-Pauvre. If you walk around the church and aren't fooled by the bare seventeenth-century façade, you should recognize the linear medieval structure which dates back to a transition period between Romanesque and Gothic.
FUN FACT: Saint-Julien has kept its medieval architecture, but its interior is hiding a surprise. At the back of the church that's been entrusted to the Catholic community, you can admire a wall decorated with oriental icons that was made in 1900.
