explanation: Located on a small island in Seine river at the center of Paris, there existed already a temple of Jupiter during Roman period, which would be replaced by Saint Etienne Basilica. The construction of the actual building began in 1163 during the reign of Louis VII and achieved in 1345. During French revolution in 1789, the edifice was vandalized, the 12 fontal statues of apostles beheaded. Though since 1845, it had been restored, during Paris Commune uprising in 1871, it was again vandalized.
