The Basilica's decorative elements were created by one of the most fashionable artistic teams of its time: Louis Barillet, Jean Lambert-Rucki, Lin Gualino... Today, this building is a major masterpiece of interwar art in Europe. The Basilica is the world sanctuary of the 3 Ave Maria. This Basilica is the headquarters of the Work whose mission is to spread this prayer throughout the world. Do not miss the visit of the Carillon, unique in the Centre Val de Loire and one of the highest in France. Perched at the top of the bell tower, 60 metres above the ground, it offers an unobstructed and splendid view of the Loire and the city of Blois and its surroundings! On site, a shop with monastic crafts, a religious bookshop and religious objects.
