Comic Book Sacred Heart of Montmartre in English

This comic book, in English, is entirely dedicated to the Sacré-Cœur and was written by Jean-François Vivier and illustrated by Emmanuel Cerisier.

This comic book provides a precise account of the history of this sanctuary from architectural, religious, social, and political perspectives.

Suitable for children from the age of 8, it is a unique little gift for a religious ceremony such as a confirmation, for example.

The Sacré-Cœur Basilica, recognized by its white color and Romanesque-Byzantine style, was constructed between 1875 and 1912 by the architect Paul Abadie. This construction was the result of a vow made by Alexandre Legentil and Hubert Rohault de Fleury to build a church in Paris dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
