Sacré Coeur de Montmartre (Basilique du)Crowning the Butte Montmartre, this church was built from 1875 onwards as an act of penance after France was defeated by the Prussians in 1870. Built in a... Romano-Byzantine style, the building was consecrated in 1919 and given the name “basilica,” thereby making it a shrine. Before entering the Sacré-Cœur, enjoy the unrestricted view of Paris from the square in front of the basilica. Even better, go up to the dome gallery, which offers a spectacular view extending over a 50-km radius! Among the noteworthy elements of the basilica are the 18,835 kg “Savoyarde” bell, three metres in diameter - the biggest church bell in France. The mosaic ceiling in the apse and the big church organs are other impressive features of the interior. ED Photo D.R.
