As a reminder to its location in a neighbourhood of populations of various nationalities, the Church took the name of St Joseph des Nations (St Joseph of the nations) in the 1980s. The organ case was designed by Théodore Ballu, the architect of the church. The organ itself was built in 1874 by the brothers Stoltz (Édouard and Eugène).
