Description
Paris, Sacre Coeur Basilica in Montmartre
It was the Archbishop of Paris, Cardinal Guibert, who approved the building of this church, and the hill of Montmarte was yet again chosen as the most appropriate site. And so, by 1873 Cardinal Guibert had obtained the authority to utilise the land for the new church.
The architect chosen was Paul Abadie and the Romano-Byzantine style was inspired by places like the Sain Marks church in Venice and was in complete contrast to the medieval style of Gothic churches like Notre Dame in Paris. (for more: https://www.eutouring.com/history_sacre_coeur_basilica.html)
