The Société des Missions Etrangères de Paris (MEP) was created in 1658 for the evangelization of Asia. In 360 years, nearly 4,500 priests were sent from the 128 Rue du Bac seminary, and about 120 dioceses were founded. Twenty-three missionaries offered their lives in martyrdom and are officially holy. The crypt of the Martyrs is a place of pilgrimage dedicated to them. Many groups or individuals come to visit and pray. You are welcome here. It contains paintings, objects and relics of the holy martyrs. Today, there are 150 priests in 14 countries. Since 2003, thousands of young volunteers have left to support missions, for example in Madagascar, China, India, the Philippines… They work in education, health, care of the disabled, street children, rural development, youth animation, accounting, etc. Get on board too!
Guided tour of the Martyrs Hall, the Crypt, the chapel and the garden every 15 minutes, from 1 pm to 5 pm.
