With its magnificent immaculate façade, impressive interior and panoramic view over Paris, Sacré-Cœur is a must-see for any visitor. Built between 1874 and 1914 on the Montmartre hilltop, it was designed as a response to the Palais Garnier. Indeed, Paul Abadie’s Romanesque-Byzantine project was quite “unusual” for its time, and his aim was indeed to counter the bold opulence of the new Paris Opéra!
The tour begins with a look at the exterior of the Sacré-Coeur. Your professional guide will tell you all you need to know about this legendary building, before taking you on a tour of the basilica’s interior. Here, you can marvel at the world’s largest mosaic: the Sacred Heart of Jesus, venerated by the Virgin Mary, Joan of Arc and the Archangel Saint Michael. Afterwards, take a stroll through the famous village of Montmartre…
Situated on a hill, Paris’s artists’ quarter is full of charm! These alleyways are full of wild stories and offer exceptional views of the capital. During your guided tour, you’ll also discover the Place du Tertre, one of Paris’s most famous squares. It plays a major role in the magic of the Montmartre district!
