Église du Sacré-Cœur d'Aurillac, Catholic church in Aurillac, France.

The church features a high dome supported by pendentives, incorporating granite and Murat stone alongside reinforced concrete in its construction.

Pierre Croizet designed this neo-Roman rationalist church in 1937, drawing inspiration from cathedral architecture of southwestern France.

The interior displays stained glass windows by Marguerite Huré, bas-reliefs by Claude Bouscau, and mosaics from Mauméjean workshops.

Located at 12 Avenue du Quatre-Septembre, the church maintains regular visiting hours and offers special access during Heritage Days events.

A monumental statue of Christ with the inscription PAX 1935 by Georges Bigeard stands prominently on the southern facade.
