Basilique Sainte Therese de Lisieux

A Romano-Byzantine Splendor Erected in honor of Saint Thérèse shortly after her canonization, this monumental basilica is one of the largest churches built in the 20th century. Its architecture is inspired by the Sacré-Cœur Basilica in Paris, distinguished by its immense white dome that dominates the entire city. Inside, the visual impact is complete: the walls and vaults are covered with vibrant mosaics that tell the story of Thérèse's "Little Way," bathing the space in a golden and colorful light of rare serenity. A Center of Global Spirituality Beyond its architectural achievement, the Basilica is a place filled with emotion. It includes a crypt entirely decorated with marble and mosaics, as well as a reliquary dedicated to Thérèse's parents, Louis and Zélie Martin (also canonized). Whether one comes for faith or for art, the site impresses with its scale and the finesse of its details, offering a space for contemplation capable of accommodating thousands of visitors from all over the world.
