Église sanctuaire Notre-Dame-du-Suc de Brissac, church located in Hérault, in France
The Notre-Dame-du-Suc sanctuary stands atop a hill in Brissac, providing panoramic views over the Hérault valley and surrounding mountains in the Hérault department of the Occitanie region.
The site's history dates back to the 8th century with the discovery of a statue of the Virgin Mary, leading to the construction of the first chapel by Benedictines, its reconstruction in 1700, and the current sanctuary built in 1860.
Elevated to the status of minor basilica in 1954, this pilgrimage site welcomes faithful visitors from across the region to venerate the Virgin Mary during religious celebrations and traditional processions.
The sanctuary is open to the public on Sundays from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM, located approximately 45 kilometers north of Montpellier, with free access for all visitors wishing to discover this place of prayer.
In 2025, the sanctuary was designated as one of ten jubilee churches in the Diocese of Montpellier for the Jubilee of Hope, testifying to its exceptional spiritual importance in the region.
