Basilica of Notre Dame de Victoire in France, Paris resort
Rating: 8,4/10 (100 votes)  The history of this once monastery dates back to the reign of King Louis XIII, who decided to build a temple in honor of the successful siege of the fortress of La Rochelle. The first stone of the monastery was founded exactly one year after the victory, in 1629. The solemn ceremony of laying the first stone was conducted by the king himself. However, construction was curtailed immediately after the start, because France was overtaken by treasury crises, and there was simply nothing to build a new monastery. From 1656, construction was started again, but already intermittent steps, all the same due to lack of funding. In 1666, the monastery was consecrated, but it was never completed. The final construction work ended only in 1740, We also recommend reading Val-de-Grasse in France, Paris resort Topic: Basilica of Notre Dame de Victoire in France, Paris resort. |
