Basilique Notre-Dame de Sion, Minor basilica in Saxon-Sion, France.
The Basilique Notre-Dame de Sion stands on the Sion-Vaudémont hill, featuring a prominent tower crowned with a 7-meter-tall Immaculate Conception statue.
The basilica's construction spans multiple centuries, with its choir dating to 1308, an abside from the 15th century, and a nave enlarged in 1741.
The basilica holds significance as a Marian devotion site where the Dukes of Lorraine made regular pilgrimages, following ancient Roman and Celtic worship traditions.
The religious monument maintains regular visiting hours and welcomes both worshippers and tourists interested in exploring its architectural and historical elements.
In 2003, a fire damaged parts of the structure and destroyed the bells, leading to extensive restoration work and the installation of new bells in 2007.
