This basilica, nestled between Place Royale and Rue du Calvaire, is massive and chiseled in a neo-gothic style

Nestled between Place Royale and Rue du Calvaire, Saint-Nicolas rises in a massive, chiselled neo-Gothic style. The building was constructed in three stages between 1844 and 1869 by architects Jean-Baptiste Lassus, Henri-Théodore Driollet and Gustave de Bourgerel, and became a basilica in 1882. The esplanade was completely renovated in 2017, making it a pleasant place to pass between terraces and small boutiques. Its dimensions are impressive: 86 meters long, 32 meters wide, 24 meters high under the vaults, 100 meters high for the spire.

Un moment de prières et de recueillement dans la joie du partage, en faveur de la paix.
