Vintage Sacred Heart Basilique Du Sacre Coeur De Montmartre Religious Medal
Beautiful vintage religious medal of Jesus with Sacred Heart - the
Basilique du Sacre Coeur de Montmartre in Paris is on the back. This
medal measures approximately about 1 & 1/16ths inches tall with the
bail.
The Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris is a Roman Catholic church and minor basilica, dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, in Paris, France. A popular landmark, the basilica is located at the summit of the butte Montmartre, the highest point in the city. It is a double monument, political and cultural, both a national penance for the supposed excesses of the Second Empire and socialist Paris Commune of 1871 crowning its most rebellious neighborhood, and an embodiment of conservative moral order, publicly dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, which was an increasingly popular vision of a loving and sympathetic Christ.
