Basilica of the Sacré Cœur

Was finally completed in 1914 although construction

started in 1873 it was built by Paul Abadie

Since it located on the hill Montmarte

it is even higher than the Eiffel tower.

It has been able to keep its clean white color in the

polluted air because of the château-Landon stones that were

used to build it.
