Basilica Our Lady of the tables, Minor basilica in Montpellier, France.
Notre-Dame des Tables is a church in Montpellier built in the baroque style during the 18th century. Its interior features carefully worked stone details, soaring vaulted ceilings, and religious imagery carved throughout the space.
A church occupied this site starting in 1230, but it was destroyed during the French Revolution. The present structure was built beginning in 1707 to replace what had been lost.
The name refers to medieval money changers who worked at tables near the church, a practical detail that became part of the place's identity. This connection between commerce and faith reveals how the location functioned as a social hub beyond just worship.
The building sits in central Montpellier and is easily reached on foot. Keep in mind that regular worship services take place, which may limit access at certain times.
The basilica was officially designated as a protected historical monument in 1938, reflecting its architectural importance. This recognition ensures the building and its baroque heritage are preserved for the future.
