Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, Catholic church in Natchitoches Historic District, United States

The Basilica of the Immaculate Conception presents French-influenced architecture with a central dome, Austrian stained glass windows, and imported interior furnishings from France.

Founded in 1728, the current structure represents the seventh building of the parish, constructed in 1857 during a period extending through the Civil War.

The basilica maintains traditional Catholic services while housing the Bishop Martin Museum, which contains early church records and religious artifacts from the region.

The church offers daily mass services, with confessions available 30 minutes before each service and special weekend mass times on Saturdays and Sundays.

The interior features hand-carved wooden elements, including a baptismal font, and contains the burial sites of Bishop Augustin Martin and Vicar-General Pierre Dicharry.
