Continuing through Paris people and places:
St. Vincent de Paul is quite popular- a vast number of parishes and of course the charitable organization, the St. Vincent de Paul Society, are named for him. Rather than recount information here, I simply direct you here to read about him and his many incredible stories from his priesthood to his time as a slave to founding religious congregations to serving the poor, etc. This man did a lot and just as his spiritual daughter, St. Catherine Laboure, he is also incorrupt.
Also, check out this site to learn more about the Basilica of the Sacred Heart or Sacre Coeur built on Montmartre.
