Saint Epvre Basilica, Gothic Revival basilica in Old Town, Nancy, France.
The structure extends 84 meters high with twin towers, featuring stained glass windows, wooden panels, and architectural elements made from Euville stone.
Construction of the current basilica started in 1864 under architect Prosper Morey, replacing a previous church from 1436 at the same location.
The basilica houses sacred relics of Saint Epvre at its altar and receives numerous Catholic worshippers throughout the year for religious ceremonies.
The basilica opens at variable hours depending on volunteer availability, with access through the main entrance on Place Saint-Epvre.
Emperor Franz-Joseph and Napoleon III contributed to its construction, with Pope Pius IX donating stone paving from the Appian Way for the choir.
