Notre Dame de la Garde

This Neo-Byzantine basilica is a new church. Construction of the basilica started in 1853 and completed in 1864. It was built on a 15th century church that was destroyed which in turn was was built over a 12th century chapel. The basilica stands on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
