Things to do in Paris | Île-de-France | France

The Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris, commonly known as Sacré-Cœur Basilica and often simply Sacré-Cœur is a Roman Catholic church and minor basilica in Paris, France, dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Sacré-Cœur Basilica is located at the summit of the butte Montmartre, the highest point in the city. It is a popular landmark, and the second-most visited monument in Paris. Sacré-Cœur Basilica has maintained a perpetual adoration of the Holy Eucharist since 1885. The basilica was designed by Paul Abadie. Construction began in 1875 and was completed in 1914. The basilica was consecrated after the end of World War I in 1919. (Wikipedia)

Traveler Notes

The Sacré Cœur is everything you expect from a lavish European basilica. The steps and "terrace" of the church, which in my opinion, is very reminiscent of the Ruins of St. Paul in Macau, provides remarkable views of the Parisian skyline, where many of its most iconic monuments can be spotted on a clear day.

How To Get Here. Take the Metro to Anvers or Pigalle (Line 2); Jules-Joffrin (Line 12); or Abbesses (Line 12). Either climb the 270 stairs to the basilica, or take the funicular (€1) after a short walk from these stations.

Sacré-coeur- fabulous building can go in and walk around for free. Again amazing architecture and stain glass etc. you can also go to the top of the dome but you do have to pay for this.

Warning you have to climb a lot of steps to get to the Sacré-coeur as it sits on top of a hill hence the view. There is a like tram to the top as well. There are also about 300 steps to the top of the tower not an easy climb but incredible views of Paris
