Sainte Marguerite was built in 1624-1634 as a chapel l dedicated to Margaret of Antioch. After been branch Church of the St. Paul Church, the chapel became a parish church in 1712. The nave and the aisles were built in 1679. In 1703 the chapel of the north transept was built, called Chapelle Saint-Joseph-Sainte-Marguerite. The south transept was enlarged with the chapel of the Virgin in 1724. Between 1760 and 1764, the architect Victor Louis built the Chapelle des Âmes-du-Purgatoire in the neoclassical style; the painter Paolo-Antonio Brunetti (1723-1783) made the beautiful ‘trompe l'oeil’ decoration.
The main organ is built by the Stoltz brothers in 1873 and is entirely authentic. In contrast, the choir organ, originally built by the Stoltz brothers too, has been severly modified towards a neobaroque style by Haerpfer-Erman in 1970, including the organ case and console.
