June 1, 1998 - The Church of St. Louis, King of France (aka “The Little French Church”) in downtown St. Paul introduces its brand new pipe organ. The organ is the centerpiece of a campaign to renovate the church, which was designed by French architect Emmanuel Louis Masqueray in 1909. The architect also designed the St. Paul Cathedral and the Basilica of St. Mary in Minneapolis, but Masqueray called the Church of St. Louis his 'little gem'...and church officials say the new organ will be its crowning jewel.
