Perched atop the Fourvière Hill in Lyon, France, the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière is a stunning example of 19th-century French ecclesiastical architecture. Built between 1872 and 1884, this basilica is a symbol of gratitude ... to the Virgin Mary for saving the city from the Prussian invasion in 1870. Visitors can admire the intricate mosaics, stunning stained glass windows, and panoramic views of Lyon from the basilica's terrace. Popular activities include attending mass, exploring the basilica's crypt, and enjoying the peaceful gardens surrounding the church. The best time to visit is during the annual Festival of Lights in December when the basilica is beautifully illuminated. Immerse yourself in the local culture and traditions by attending a concert or exhibition held within the basilica, or by participating in a religious procession. Read more ▼
