Basilique du Sacré-Cœur de Grenoble, Roman-Byzantine minor basilica in Grenoble, France
The Basilique du Sacré-Cœur is a minor basilica in Grenoble built in Roman-Byzantine style with a contemporary interior. The church features modern stained glass windows that flood the space with colored light and create a welcoming atmosphere.
Construction began in 1922 following a bishop's vow, though the building took decades to complete. Major restoration work in the 2010s brought the basilica to its present form.
The basilica serves as an important place of worship for the local community and hosts regular religious gatherings. Visitors notice how the space is designed to bring people together for prayer and celebration.
The church is open daily for visitors, though it is best to check opening times before your visit. If you prefer a quiet moment, try visiting outside of service times.
The stained glass windows were created by artist Arcabas and showcase contemporary religious art. These modern artworks dramatically shape how light fills the interior space.
