The Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur of Montmartre is the Shrine of Perpetual Adoration and divine Mercy, dedicated to Jesus’ sacred Heart.

It is a unique place where people pray day and night, continuously, for almost 140 years now.
It is a sacred place where people can experience the tenderness and infinite mercy of God.
It is a beating heart for each person coming in.
It is Jesus who relieves you by presenting his gentle, humble heart.

It is also a historic landmark for the Church of France. It has a global reach, welcoming every year millions of visitors from all countries. It is now waiting for you.

« When seeing in the distance the white domes of the Sacré-Cœur of Montmartre, each Parisian, each visitor to the capital may say to himself that up there, at this moment, someone is praying for him, for all the people around him, and for the whole world. »

Jean-Marie Lustiger Cardinal
