    There are many notable historic churches in Europe, so standing out is difficult. This little…read morechurch caught the eye of my wife and I and we explored it for a closer look. Absolutely beautiful architecture and detailed pieces all around. Right behind a nice park as well.

    "The broken hearted are the bravest among us - they dare to love."…read more One of the main reasons I love Paris is how there's a story in every alleyway, around every corner, and in every cobbled stone arrondissement. Ahh Paris... L'amour est comme le vent, nous ne savons pas d'où il vient... Love is like the wind... On my way to Musée Rodin serendipity brought me to Sainte-Clotilde de Paris. A Basilica in the French Gothic Revival style. Simply breathtaking. Located at Square Samuel Rousseau in the 7th arrondissement... the Catholic Basilica overwhelms the small park opened to the public in 1857. The wonderful statue, L'Education maternelle, dedicated in 1875, faces the Basilica. The 226-feet twin spires can be seen from a mile away. And the story of Abbé Bernard Bouveresse, a leader in the French Resistance resonates here. Between the two Gothic towers, a statue of St. Clotilde watches over Paris like a latter day St. Geneviève. In the end, Sainte-Clotilde de Paris is a memorable stop on the way to the more famous landmarks. Not as legendary as Notre-Dame de Paris or as historic as L'église de la Madeleine just across the Seine, but nonetheless a masterpiece of French Gothic Revival... Love is like the wind... Je t'aime!
