This church of St. Remigius bore the name of caput Franciæ, head of all France, until those days of October 1793, when, from its desecrated pulpit was proclaimed the word that the days of darkness were at an end; when the holy ampulla was broken, and the relics of the Apostle of France were thrown into a common grave (they were, however, afterwards discovered and authentically recognized; and are, to this day, an object of the greatest veneration to pilgrims).
Kanisa hili la Mtakatifu Remigius alichukua jina la caput Franciæ, mkuu wa wote Ufaransa, hata siku zile wa Oktoba 1793, wakati, kutoka kwenye mimbari wake inapoharibiwa ilitangazwa neno kwamba siku zijazo za giza walikuwa mwishoni; wakati ampulla takatifu ilikuwa, na sanduku ya Mtume wa Ufaransa vikatupwa ndani ya kaburi la kawaida (walikuwa, hata hivyo, baada ya kugundua na authentically kutambuliwa; na ni, hadi leo hii, kitu cha heshima kubwa kwa mahujaji).
