Sacré-Cœur, also known as the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris, is a prominent Roman Catholic church and minor basilica located at the highest point in the city on Montmartre hill. This stunning white-domed structure is not only an important religious site but also a significant cultural and historical landmark. Constructed between 1875 and 1914, the basilica was designed by architect Paul Abadie. Its Romano-Byzantine style sets it apart from other Parisian churches, with its grand dome offering breathtaking panoramic views of the city. Inside, visitors can admire beautiful mosaics, including one of the largest in the world, and partake in perpetual adoration, a practice that has continued since 1885.
