On 18 March 1996 the church was occupied by about three hundred African immigrants who demanded regularization of their immigration status. After four days the group was ordered to leave by public authorities. A similar situation arose at the eglise St Bernard. (Text Source: Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia)
