Basilica of St. Thérèse

For an amazing and truly moving experience this visit is well worth making. There is a huge car park in front of the Basillica with plenty of toilets. The entrance is free. I recommend starting with the Crypt which will introduce you to two saints and give you an idea of the magnificence that awaits in the main church. All accessible the entrance is to the right of the front steps. The main body of the church is entered via a ramped path to the left of the building, along an open loggia to the entrance. Be prepared for a sharp intake of breath! This church is truly magnificent. The ceiling is covered in mosaics of saints etc. It really is beyond description. Here you will be introduced to St Thérèse of Lisieux and learn about her life and also see the inclusion of a world of altars. I am not an overly religious person, in fact my husband is an atheist, and we were both completely bowled over by this place.
